I am very pleased with this netbook. I carry it everywhere...to play games, to get email, to download, to upload photos from my camera. It has more ports than anyone could use. I especially like the SD port as it makes it easy to upload my photos.
I will admit that I do have trouble typing emails as I have been accustomed to the ergonomic keyboard. But I do muddle along quite well and don't worry about my typos.
