Wow, that actually is a pretty good deal. The screen could be bigger, but you get what you pay for.

man, when they mean sub 1000, they really cut it close,lol. its not a bad notebook for the price i guess, although i’d chunk up an extra 100 bucks for at least a better battery. a battery that is rated to last 2 hrs initially will only work for 20 minutes by the end of the first year.they could of given it at least a battery with the capacity of 3hrs. other than that, the spec on it aren’t too shabby, especially at that price point.
