EI Systems 3115 Pentium Dual Core 1.73GHz / 1024MB / 80GB / TFT15.4 / DVDRW / Win Vista Home Premium PC Computer Laptop Reviews

Very good laptop, the ownly downfall is the graphics which is shared, but then again laptops mainly come with shared graphics!

This laptop was overall outstanding. I bought it for 350 brand new from Curry's, delivered within a few days (Came in a Land Rover but hey, what can you do!) I literally plugged everything in, and it was already running like clockwork! There are only two downfalls within this machine, they are Graphics and Vista.

As you are probably aware, Windows' Descendants XP and every few years to follow, had been about for plenty of years, allowing microsoft to bug fixes and patches as often as possible. Vista however has only been around for at least a year now, therefore only having a few bug fixes and patches for it. Windows aero within Vista is a HUGE downfall. If you enjoy playing the popular FPS shooting games such as Americas Army and Counter Strike-Source, you will find these programs almost impossible to run using Windows Aero Within Vista. The compatibility mode is not fantastic either, a lot of the older games will not work within Vista's compatibility mode. Asking a fresh new operating system to backdate itself at least 7 years? Almost impossible. All in all, for the price it is, it's a fantastic laptop to buy, as long as you do not use it for playing games, and if you buy Microsoft Office, theres an added bonus. Microsoft Office 2007 is smart and sophisticated compared to the other versions. Enjoy!
