positive: lightweight, CPU fast, RAM 8GB & 128 GB NVM right size for linux, promotion price very good, battery lasts long (decreasing screen brightness).
negative: screen too bright in setup (cannot decrease brightness), fan is noisy when it is turned on, up/down arrows on keyboard are uncomfortable (more important than other keys). wifi disconnects in linux (realtek may be the culprit), lots of bloatware (I had to re-partition & erase Windows completely). The HDMI connection does not work with some projectors, Cannot get my Windows license # (please email it).

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this for a granddaughter for Christmas and she really likes it. It was already set up and she had it up and running in no time. Only fall back is it didn't come with a disc reader-writer.
