Good Points: Quite a smart smooth design.
Bad Points: We have all but given up with trying to seek compensation from PC world over the appalling after sale's back-up we have clearly not had from this company. In short, this Packard Bell was a 'rushed' product and has had major overheating problems. This fact is backed up by our enquiries in the States, where PB are virtually in 'cease trading' mode. Apart from constant 'shut-down', (as I type I have an external fan running at the rear of the machine to keep it cool enough), this Laptop has very limited battery, slow performance and weighs a ton. Never again with PB....or PC world.
General comments: Watch out for Packard Bell rebranding in Europe..

At the time of purchasing the Packard Bell Easynote K5285 I resisted considerable pressure from PC World to take out extended warranty - I always do.
After 14 months I was unable to boot up the laptop and sought advice from PC World (the vendor) at Exeter - without success. I sought professional assistance. We were advised that the problem was likely to be minor and that re-installing Windows XP would resolve the problem. However, the DVDRW drive was found to be defective. Again we sough ...
