| Review by Wallace Guy (Mill Valley, CA USA) 2010-03-05 I only had a couple of days. I love the computer. Have been on the market for a netbook, but left because the processor supports speeds. But the touch pad. Ah, the touch pad. So, you cut out hunting ... assume that you buy a portable mouse to go with this computer. The rest of this review is mainly for entertainment value.
