I bought this laptop for my twin brother. He and I have been playing a lot of Dungeons & Dragons together lately after he was seriously injured last Christmas (brain/neck injury), and unfortunately he broke his laptop screen the day that he had another major surgery. I didn't realize that apparently not having a webcam can be a standard thing. I would have just bought a separate webcam, but he told me that even after following the directions to fully charge the battery, the battery life was only about 1.5h. He also could tell the screen was replaced because they didn't have the casing flush against the screen. With all these issues together, it just feels safer to return it and get a different one. They offered to send me a replacement battery, but the shoddy job on the replaced screen has me too nervous to take any further chances.
