Although it's a nice computer after one month the ? key fell off and won't go back on. Not sure who to call to have this fixed.
Rating:  - beautiful screen, pitiful system
The good :
0) very beaufiful, cool screen. Nice ergonomics and cool white keyboard. Rugged, reliable and strong.
The bad :
1) No multimedia keys. Though it initially looks smart, it depends on service exes, they work slow.Worse is they make the system slow and occupy RAM a lot.

Rating:  - Perfect Graduation Gift
this was requested as a graduation gift by my little brother who just finished college thank GOD! He wanted something that closely resembled a Mac but not a Mac! He loved this light weight notebook with all the trimmings. It was a fantastic bargain for the features it offers.
The screen size is nice and is perfect for carrying around. Even works internationally for those voltage differences. Looks incredibly prestigious and slick!
