Overall look is fine but it supports only Vista Operating System which is the least preferred one.
Audio drivers are not available for XP operating System. 4 of the motherboard resource drivers are not available.
The web cam is of VGA type, so the picture is not that clear but just meets the purpose. The silver panel around keyboard to cover the body doesn't really sync well with the jet black satin finish on the back of LCD screen.
Most of the plugging areas are well placed and the display is good. SATA support is not available if XP is chosen to install. Very poor support to linux installation. No drivers are available for this model to install Linux. I tried Redhat Enterprise Linux 5 which found unregistered Interface devices and denied to proceed with installation.
The battery though a 6 cell one, gives a long lasting backup of 4.4hrs when opted with Power Saver - Energy management system. Impressive one.
