You need to understand where I’m coming from – my most recent HP G62-340US computer was running a Pentium 4 with 512MB of RAM and an 80GB hard drive. That being said this computer is a significant step up, and I think it’s great. I think it’s also important to know what I’m using this computer for….I work in a hospital and use this to log on to the hospital system, use Microsoft Office, and surf the internet. For these applications this computer is perfect. I’ve had it for about 1 month and have had no issues. It does come loaded with a bunch of HP software which can be uninstalled so that’s not a problem.

The battery is listed as 4 hrs…it probably doesn’t last that long – I haven’t officially timed the battery life but it’s probably closer to 3 hrs. The case is plastic, the cold startup time is fast <30 sec, the wake from hibernate time is close to 3 seconds, display clear; keyboard easy type on. The only thing that took me some get used touchpad as it does not have any defined boundaries and buttons are a little stiff. I seemed gotten use both for they minor issues. think computer ideal student or person who has similar tasks mine (listed above - probably vast majority
of people). I'm gamer don't intend on using this playing high intensity video games doing lot photo>
