I was given this computer for college 3 years ago. It didn't give me any trouble for the first 2 years, but after that the trouble came: I had to replace the whole hard drive and just a month ago, the connection between the monitor and the computer worsened because of opening and closing the top. Also, the computer's fan makes a LOT of noise whenever you use for more than 10 minutes.

i have alot computers around the house,all AMD based got this thing for christmas,and was scared to even turn it on because of the celeron,this is my 2nd notebook and my 1st on was AMD.well after a couple of hours i figure what the hell turned it on and holymolly this thing rocks,even blows my AMD 2.0 ghz desktop out of the water.did some searching and found that the new celerons are basicly a p4 with L2 cut down instead of 512 it has 256kb.i have always used AMD's but now when i build my next system it will be intel celeron or p4.if they would ratings,say 10 id give it 15.

I've had this laptop for a month and it is perfect for my needs. I left XP Home on the disk and also added Linux. The video quality is beautiful; I've played DVDs on it while traveling. The touchpad is easy to use.
