It took some time for me to get familiar with Windows 8 but overall this laptop is quite nice.

The keyboard is very sensitive. A lot of times when I'm typing, the cursor will shift to the bottom of the page or to another region of the page, usually in the middle of another sentence, maybe in the same paragraph, maybe in another paragraph. Also, this laptop has the new version of Windows, it sucks. I wish I had the option of choosing which Windows environment I wanted before I purchased this laptop. It's very hard to navigate.

The computer is new. So only thing on the hard drive is the default programs. But I would not recommend this computer. It has too many issues to list here. I won't be buying it again.

Is the general consensus that this is going to be a good to very good machine? I like most of the specs, but you never know until you have it in your hands...would love to hear thoughts of those considering purchasing this netbook.

As a general PC it is fine. We are not using it for gaming. Boot up takes maybe 15 seconds.

I don't know what any of that means, but I can tell you it's one of the slowest computers I've ever had. I've got an old msi gt660r and it starts up and runs apps and websites about 7 times as fast as this piece of junk. Maybe it's Win8.1 but if I was you I'd avoid it.

I am not totally pleased with it as it came. It varied from the description given, so suspect the ad is a close description. We did some upgrading, one being installing Windows 8, to get it working better. I still have an 'unexpected shutdown' often, so far Windows has been able to correct some of the issues causing it. I would have asked for a replacement, but it would have been more of an expense so decided to accept it as a 'used' computer. You never really know what you will get until it arrives. I will not buy another 'used' computer unless I do it locally. I have purchased a new laptop from Amazon & am very happy. I am not totally pleased with it as it came.

Thanks Kanje, I will keep that in mind. So far the only gripe I have is the lack of volume. If I could do something about that. Might keep ad a work computer only as I got it at a reduced price.

The computer is small, quiet and fast. It appears to be very stable running Microsoft Windows 7 Pro. I bought one on impulse and liked it so much that I bought 4 more.Yes I would recommend it. If you have further questions, please ask.

This computer was bought for a student visiting from China. I don't have any info on it. Sorry :(

I think you would find it lacking. It's not really a strong pc. I use it for restaurant pos stuff. It works fine for that, but if I was buying a computer for myself to use daily I would not recommend it.

I did not like any part of Dell. I exchanged it for an HP, what a wonderful difference

Asus system works fine. Cheap but fine for what it is. Not a gaming PC so any attempt to game with it will result in frustration. But email, internet and word processing will be perfect!

Unfortunately no. I have a hatred for touchpads as well. But it rarely causes any issues. I will say this computer in general is fantastic. Super fast, very reliable. Great looking too.

8.1. But I have to say that if I had it to do over again, I would not purchase this computer.

This a very, very, very, slow computer. I seriously doubt that you could play any game on it. I only bought it for windows 7 operating system so the I could continue to use my dedicated photo printer.

I use this computer for many uses, one of which is graphics work with the GIMP (gnu image manipulation program) which is similar to Photoshop (in both capabilities and requirements). This computer can easily run the program, and has enough ram to open/edit good sized documents, but will lag on big files or if you run a processing task of any magnitude. Simpler processing tasks like adjusting brightness and contrast work fine, but lag on big images to the point that it is (slightly) annoying if you use the active preview. I also have a powerful home- built desktop, and it's greater speed is both noticeable and welcome after using the laptop. Short answer: it will work fine, but it is the minimum, more power would be ideal if photo work is your focus. If you only edit photos occasionally, this laptop should perform fine. Disclaimer: I cannot speak on the software aspect of the computer(win8) and how much power it consumes, as I wiped the hard drive immediately after the computer arrived and replaced win8 with Ubuntu 13.04
