    I bought this laptop from PC world, and at first was amazed at the spec for the price, however I had to return it due to a faulty disc drive, the build quality was terrible. The drive was at first very loose, and eventually fell out after, a week. The integrated graphics card is very week, and the vista score for that is 1.0, everything else is fine. Start up time is also a bit slow but I suppose that's just vista. To conclude, I think you are better off putting in another £50 something pounds and get a branded laptop like acer or asus.

    Although the spec is fantastic for the price the advent 5411 has a common problem, the touch pad is S**T, it moves on its own, it clicks on its own and the tech guys at PC world are clueless to say the least, Im a malware removal expert and have tried all sorts to solve this problem and basically there is not one, not unless you want to send it back to PC world for 6 weeks for it to come back in the same state it went in, spend the extra £200 and and a Dell for the same spec. Google the "a ...

    the advent 5411 is an excellent laptop, though when i bought it the drawback was they didnt do spare parts for it, so i would suggest when buying a laptop find how new it is first, as my charger got broken it was hard to replace

    also lacks a graphics card so doesnt run newer games you might like to play

    excellent laptop nevertheless

    Advent 5411 is a bargain for what it comes with ... very easy to use and seems to withstand knocks and bumps! Would definitely recommend to a friend!

    Ive had an advent 5411 since october 2008 and you still cant get a laptop with the same spec for the price a year on. Im more than happy with it runs very quick and plenty of storage.

    Easy to use and know its features.. i personally have no problems with the Advent 5411..even if some said they got problems but that's a problem stuff that arises in mass production... i guess my luck was ok..lol.. its fast and the screen seems to suit me..

    yeah the fan is on constant run.. its maybe the work that i am doing...lol... else if only they included some nice features like designs on the top lid or some lights here and there :P oh oh, and a good graphic card instead of an integrated ...

    This laptop is perfect for those on a lower budget without compromising on quality and performance. My sister recently bought a Compaq pc for the same price but with 3gb RAM and is a lot slower (eg it takes another 6 seconds to load up itunes). Comparing this Advent laptop to hers, it fails slightly on screen clarity and sound, however I have now connected it to an excellent external speaker system with Dolby 5.1 and is amazing. As regards the picture quality, this is only slightly different and ...

    Great spec, good enough processor, plenty of storage and loads of RAM.
    Perfect for a Uni student like me who runs the occasional game and Office programs all at once along with the usuals like iTunes etc. I bought this about a month ago and its been perfect for me.
    I reccommend Advent 5411 for a laptop.

    I have searched the Net for a battery to the Advent 5411 but have found none. When your battery goes with no replacement it's curtains. Therefore doo not recommend the Advent 5411 even if the spec does look good.

    Great value, excellent spec... latest processor, 4Gb Ram 320GB HD, webcam, not loaded with rubbish and lasts depending on what configuration you use. Weighs 2.7kg, so is pretty light compared to a lot of other manufactuers. Wi-fi, had no problems connecting to wireless routers or hot spots.
    Worth buying, price is excellent for the spec when you go up against other manufacturers who have a far lower spec for the same price.

    Where do I start? Sound is very good, the display is crystal clear with the 15.4" wide screen, it is awesome value for money, very easy to use, fast and wireless! Awesome laptop, excellent value for money!
