The downside is, of course, that the bigger it is, the MORE it WEIGHS. I'm not gonna lie: by the time you pack the computer AND the chunky battery pack, you are going to be lugging that thing around, wondering why it's considered a "portable" computer!
It also runs hot, of course -- the power box is hot, and sometimes the bottom of the computer is super-hot, too.
That said, I've never met a laptop that didn't have these flaws. And this model has a lot going for it, too.
I love the keyboard, which is not too small to use. The screen is also pretty sharp. Most of all, this is a FAST computer that can handle big, hungry applications (Adobe Photoshop! Two browsers! Run iTunes too, and open a couple of Office apps!) without even blinking. If you're ADD or a power user, you'll like the way this machine acts just like a desktop.
Plus, I love the silver case. I'm so tired of black!
