Rubbish make for a laptop. GO with ACER or ASUS.

Biggest problem is probably the battery life, 2hours is really pretty crap. If you do buy it I suggest buying a new battery with a larger capacity, you can get them fairly cheap imported from China/Japan etc and imo it's well worth it.

$500 is cheap for that kind of laptop

Good laptop for a cheap price.

Looks can be deceiving.
I prefer a powerful plain looking laptop what is good, then a really cool one that isn't powerful at all.
