Hi Thanks for that, no I'd be using mine as desk top too, as I have the netbook but haven't the space for separate monitors and keyboards. I think the laptops are very good value for money too.

I specifically chose it for the specs and the full keyboard. A plus is that, unlike some HP laptops, it only has the on/off and WiFi keys above the function keys so one can not accidentally start processes you did not intend starting. It weighs around 2.75kg, is large and quite heavy on the battery but portability wasn't a factor.
