Negative Positive
Title: What marketing wizard thought this up...
Review: ...it sure wasn't an engineer, or anyone who regularly uses a laptop. It gets one star for the speakers, one for the nice weight of the base that securely holds the laptop. Negative stars for the crummy keyboard and mouse that I replaced with a better Microsoft product immediately. Negative stars for lack of legacy ports (I still have to buy a USB-to-Midi converter for lack of a gameport). Negative for the non-standard drive slot (which is too overpriced to consider) - so I still have to buy an external USB backup drive. Negative for the lack of its own power adaptor - have to buy an extra or else unplug junk when I need to travel with the laptop. So lets see... after laying out $200 for this thing, I still have to buy: an extra power adaptor, a new keyboard and mouse, a USB backup drive, and any legacy ports/converters I need. Two stars is generous for whats left.
Is the review positive or negative?
