Good: Display rocks (duh), quiet, looks cool.
Bad: Keyboard is 3/4 size but doesn't need to be.
Comment: Make the keyboard full size, people. And my original laptop came with a badly-scratched cover. Called Dell (paid extra for the Fast Lane tech support, bad move, it's still S_L_O_W), they sent another one in 10 days. This one was scratched too. Currently waiting for the 3rd one. Good news: haven't paid a penny yet. Not going to either until they get it right. HOURS on the phone trying to work it out. Runaround runaround runaround. Indian guys calling themselves "Jeff" (riiiiiiight) putting me on hold forever, transferring me to more and more people so I can hold with them.
Summary: great computer, expensive, lousy support.

Good: Speed, screen size and quality.
Bad: It weighs a lot... about 10lbs, which is the only negative thing about it.
Comment: Definitely don't regret buying it. It's a work horse that performs just as well as my P4 desktop. But if you're looking for a thin, easy to manipulate notebook, you may have to look elsewhere.
