I got this to use as a second computer for work and I think it does the job pretty well. It is tiny so think of a tablet with a keyboard attached, except it isn't touch screen but perfect for on-the-go or remote working. The sound quality could be better but the picture is good and for a small computer, it has decent speed. The wifi connection is sometimes temperamental and I have to restart for it to find and connect to networks but since it only takes 10-20 seconds to restart it doesn't seem like that much of a hassle.

Using Windows 8 on this computer is a little disappointing without being able to use a touch screen. Using the snap feature is a little silly, too because the screen is so small but it is nice being able to toggle between programs and apps.

Overall: I would recommend this computer but only to certain people looking for a specific type of machine.

This laptop was inexpensive and had some nice features. It runs Windows 8, but is not a touchscreen. It is a partial touchscreen, which I found useless, although a more experienced windows 8 user might have liked it. I've had laptops for years and maybe I'm just used to my other touchpads, but I found this one to be difficult to work with -not easy to move then suddenly jumping. I probably would have gotten used to it eventually but when there are so many out there that work easily, I didn't see the point. I found the keyboard to feel like a toy -not sure how to describe that clicky keys sensation.
