I've had it for 3 weeks now and it has performed great so far. Setup was a breeze and only lasted for a few minutes. It comes with a 30 day subscription to McAfee but I chose to install my own antivirus software. Installing software is fast. From opening the box I was ready to have my daughter use the laptop for a school project in an hour and the slowest part of the whole thing is my internet speed but the laptop does its best to make up for the slow service.There's 1 negative and its really not a big deal and that's the fan on the video card is always going except when it's in sleep mode.
