Nice Size

Cons

Windows Vista operates slowly

JUN

2008

Bought this computer as a freshman in college. Decent for music, word processing, light internet surfing, etc. Not much else. I never tried photoshop or DVDs with it, so I don't know about that stuff. I use my iBook for the more hefty stuff. This is a good computer to take with you to class and stuff, though.
