This machine is a lot more responsive than my older I3 which had a conventional HDD.  A few cosmetic blemishes on the case, but other than that, this is a fine upgrade from my prior machine.  There are a few cosmetic blemishes on the case but that's to be expected.  The original keyboard was damaged and the vendor shipped a replacement out the day I emailed them.  I will definitely be buying again from StallionTek
