- Speed and features The CPU has a tendency to overheat and hence reduce its speed automatically - especially in Indian climate - the CPU really slows down to a crawl
- Design and form factor Looks ok - not really stylish like the Mac or Viao
- Battery life Hardly any life at all - 1.5 hours when it was new - zero now
- Display Amazing display with its 1900x1200 goodness and very bright
- Durability plastic build - not very good
- Expandability zero expandability
- Noise fans are very very noisy - DVD drive spins like crazy
- Portability (size / weight) Large display - hence heavy :-)
Detailed review
Nice piece of equipment for the price it was sold at.
But as it was getting slow and I bought a shiny new macbook, I modified it to look like a digital picture frame.
The feature-set planned includes:
Digital Photo Frame – slideshow starts as soon as the computer boots
Media Centre (controlled via remote control):
Remote access via ssh and vnc
Act as a wireless server for my macbook time machine
