Summary: Fantastic Product
Review: I looked at a number of models when I discovered this one. The DVD/CD-ROM writer works very well. It writed copies of CDs very quickly, and so far I haven't had one unreadable from another machine. It has an IR port I find very handy (I use it for printing - no cables) But, you must go into the BIOS and "activate" it first.

Battery lasts a long time, usually 2 hours or more, even under heavy usage. The seller, though, is the screen. It's magnificent. Clear, and it's nearly 15". (great to watch DVDs on while travelling). You won't regret buying this machine.
