Bad Points: The battery life isn't brilliant, but that's to be expected with a laptop with this kind of performance. There have been a few issues with the internal wireless adaptor. The graphics card's performance isn't wonderful but it does the job for basic games.
General comments: Great performance, especially for a laptop. It is quiet and is barely audible in a silent room. It looks sleek and stylish (even now in late 2008) whilst remaining robust and well built.The 2GB of RAM keeps it running smoothly, and the dual core processor vastly improves the performance of most applications.The screen has a good brightness level, whilst keeping blacks at a good level. The colours are vibrant and crisp. I have yet to find any video or game that causes ghosting.Graphics card in combination with the VGA port allows an external screen with a resolution of up to 1920x1200. You can use dual-monitor too, meaning that you can also have 1280x800 on the laptop display.Value for money is impeccable, considering that Windows Vista is included.
A great laptop all round. Great performance for the price, brilliant screen, plenty of USB slots and peripheral slots. I would definitely recommend this laptop.

Feel very decieved at PC World battery life apart from being useless it is strange that I cannot buy a new higher capacity one. This would stop me re-purchasing this model. I suggest before buying in future check alternative batteries available.

Great value for money. Very light-weight, which makes it easier to carry my guitars to school and back without having to worry about my laptop breaking my back. Battery life is diabolic in my opinion, but I'm never very far from a plug socket, so that solves that problem for me! Vista Home Premium is fantastic. I don't know why everybody is moaning about it to be honest. It's only Vista Ultimate that has the "dodgy programme" eradicating software, or so I've been told. Overall a great little mac ...

Excellent value for money and is very light which is one of the main positive points for me. The battery life is terrible but this can be said about most laptops as far as I am aware therefore I well recommend the advent 9215. All in all, this laptop is in my favour.

Advent 9215 laptop is very good value for money, will out-perform £600 laptops, display, wireless, vista etc 10/10. Glossy black finish easy to clean, weight of laptop is fine. I have had item for 4 months no problems at all.

Ease of use. Although it's Vista you can change the outlay to a windows classic view configuration. Reasonable price for what you get. Good for the basic wireless internet connection and general home computing.
Overall a reasonably priced, basic laptop for general home use, well recommend Advent 9215.

I got one for Christmas but brought it like in November. I was so excited to use it, that I couldn't wait. But, I held tight and waited for the morning and stormed downstairs to get on it. I love it, the looks, simplicity and the memory. 160gigs for a laptop now thats impressive. The only thing is the cd drive doesn't work anymore but I did some research and it may be to do with over heating.

Low price is great, you could pay a lot more for a lower spec computer,
great value for money and I well recommend this Advent 9215 laptop... Great easy use and simple, the only bad thing for me to say is the battery life which is a problem with nearly all laptops as far as I am concerned.

Whilst it seems I have left more negative comments than positive, overall I am happy with the purchase (it does what I need it to). The laptop is incredibly well priced considering the specification, and would suit many users requirements. Recommend this Advent Laptop to anyone.
