What reviewers say

Both reviews praise the sturdy construction, security features and battery endurance, but criticise the XGA screen's viewing angles. Notebookcheck likes the keyboard and quiet cooling, while NOTEBOOK.cz finds the keys louder and the fan less quiet. Their integrated-GMA and Radeon configurations suit office work; neither is recommended for demanding games.
