Author's Review

I bought this laptop as an upgrade to my ancient one. Thinking this was the one I could go and use wherever without having to worry about the battery life was little mistake. After working with it for a while, I finally figured out that the battery on this doesn't last very long. Mine averaged out anywhere from 1.5-2 hrs. I will look into settings to maybe figure out how to make it last longer but it's not really dependable. Every sales person I talked to said it wold last no minimum than 3.5-4 hours though, not when I use it.
Other than that, an amazing performance from the processor, as slow as 1.73 GHz is it dellivers the right speed for heavy media.
I bought this so I can go mobile, but still able to do videos, and other digital media. This is the right machine for that stuff. The best thing to do is to get an external hard drive for it, since this one only has 80 GB with a 4200 RPM which delivers it enough memory but the more you put on, the less you will get out of it. If you planning to go wireless with Internet, this is the processor. I pick up the internet connection on the freeway, coffee shops, stores, anywhere who has digital internet, I am very impressed with Centrino! Great Speed on the DVD drive, and amazing brightness and sharpness on the LCD Screen. Extremely thin, but has what it needs.
