I bought this as an anniversary present for my wife, whose 8 year old computer was showing its age.She loves the light weight and the responsiveness of the touchscreen. It is fast enough for what she likes to do with the computer, and she is very happy with it.If you are looking for a good second or lightweight (physically and technological) computer this is a great one to buy. If you are looking to do some heavy lifting (gaming, heavy duty coding/graphics) this is not for you.
