We like:
Styling; ample hard drive
We don't like:
Average battery life and performance
CNET UK judgement:
The Pi 3540 is not as good as it should be. Its performance and battery life are merely average, as is its connectivity. There are certainly better Centrino 2 laptops available, but it's worth a look simply because it's so attractive.
