I bought this when it was $650. I tested out it's graphics first thing, using Half-Life 2, Team Fortress 2, Killing Floor and Portal. No choppy frames, although there was one bit of lag, very minor. (tested with high for all options) Battery is sort of weak, lasting about 2 hours, and the function and control buttons are swapped, as well as a tiny right shift key. All in all, I give it 4.5. Best laptop I've had at a budget price.

For what I paid for ($650, the price just went down to $630), it is very good value. It has 4 GB of RAM, an ATI video card and the Intel T6600 processor. However, I have 2 complaints:
1) It comes with a 32 bit OS, i.e. can't address all 4 GB of RAM,
2) A very weak battery. The battery can hardly last 2 hrs even with very aggressive power saving settings
Power laptop for low cost

I can say that this is a nice laptop. The power is there to back it up.
I gave a medium grade to Features and Quality, this is due tho there being only 3 usb ports and no pcmi express slot as some state it has. The quality i gave medium to due to the case and flimsiness of the lcd cover.
It flexes easily and the case seems to be cheaper plastic.

What Is A Cell? It's a
battery
Though technically a battery has multiple cells, we are accustomed to calling a
single energy cell a battery as well.
In
electronics, a battery or voltaic cell is a combination of many electrochemical
Galvanic cells of identical type to store chemical energy and to deliver it in
the form of electricity. The battery cells combine to produce more energy
(voltage or amps) than a cell by itself. When joined in this way, it is a
battery of cells. Almost all portable electronics use one or more cells -
rechargeable or disposable. The more cells, the more energy available -
meaning more hours of use usually.
In Notebook computers, the battery case usually
holds three or more cells. 3 Cell batteries tend to provide about 1-3
hours of use, depending on the energy needs of the Laptop. 6 cell (or
more) batteries provide much more energy, and many more hours of use. This
can be good or bad! More cells mean longer use, but more weight too!
So remember to always check for the number of
cells if specified, and choose the right configuration for your use.
Battery Trivia:
The invention of the first battery (known as a Voltaic pile) was in 1800 by
Alessandro Volta! The first known usage of the battery (as we know it
today) was in 1863 by the physician named Flora Bills.

Recovery Media
Most computer systems no longer include "Recovery Media" (Disks or CDs used to restore your computer system to it's factory shipped state). Many do not even include Operating System disks.
This is not specific to systems purchased from any one company, but now standard practice throughout the entire industry.
However, many manufacturers include software on the hard drive that creates recovery media for you. This allows burning your own set of recovery CDs or DVDs - all you need is the blank media.
Inclusion of such a recovery utility varies by manufacturer and model; not all manufactures and models include such a utility. For those that include such a utility we recommend you create your own set of recovery media after completing the Windows installation. In other words, right after you start using your PC!
If you fail to do this and encounter a difficulty in the future you may not be able to properly restore your computer.
Some manufacturers may have physical recovery media available separately for purchase; consult your owner’s manual support information section for additional information. Systems that do not come with a CD/DVD burner may still include Recovery Disks - please check the manufacturer's specs.
Contents of package may vary from those pictured and stated here,
due to changes in manufacturer's specifications or merchandising.
Please check the product information carefully, items not included
may no longer be required.
