I just got it today.  I made a mistake when I ordered it.  I always have 14 inch lap top and a 10 inch tablet.  I was so busy comparing the different ones I forgot to check the size of this one.  This one is 11.6 inches.  I decided to keep it.  It'll take a little getting use to on the size, but other wise it's a nice lap top.  The screen give a nice picture.  It loaded my Google account quickly.  I think you would like it.  It's a lot lighter than carrying around that bigger one.
