In terms of performance, the N21S/W is let down somewhat. The main problem is being the amount of installed memory, which is onlg 1GB. When running vista, this is simply not enough. The machine seems to take an age to boot up, and loading applications takes much longer than it should. Even when you disable many of Vista's memory consuming features, the laptop still runs slowly. As proof of this, I recently upgraded to 2BG of ram, and the difference is astounding. With more memory, you are able to make the most of all the other components too, i.e. the CPU which was previously limited by the lack of memory. If you are looking to play games on this laptop, I must advise against it. The in built graphics chip will not support many games, and if it does, they will run poorly. This laptop then, is mainly for work related uses and internet surfing. There is plenty of hard drive space available, and the processor is quick enough to run multiple applications at once with ease. The pricetag though is quite hefty, and you must remember that you are paying a lot for the name; an Acer laptop of similar specifications will be several hundred pounds cheaper.
