The laptop is good, except for a perfectly UNUSABLE keyboard. The characters on the keyboard are completely invisible from a normal typing distance. I had to buy some stickers to put on the keys so I can see to type.
This was a lot more sluggish than I had expected, especially the hard drive. The SSD is ok but the hard disk is very slow, you get a noticeable lag anytime you do things that use the hard disk. I give it a 3 because I am pretty much using it for email only, if I had this as my main PC I would give it a 2.
Overall a nice laptop, but it would be nice if there was a slight indentation along the front edge to make it easier to open it. Also, the pad is too sensitive and difficult to maneuver the curser. I purchased a mouse, which is a lot easier and time-saving.
