Review Summary

This is a well built laptop with a good combination of processor performance and memory capacity. You will however need to be aware that this laptop comes with a partitioned hard drive. It has a "C" and "D" drive. You should keed your programs on the "C" drive and store all your data, music, photos etc on the "D" drive. This is our second ASUS laptop and I would give this a recommend rating.
