I entered the store to buy another computer but left with this after some knowledgeable sales people sold it to me. Great Laptop, love the OS and the keyboard. Seems to be pretty fast, comes with remote so you can manipulate it away from keyboard. Battery life is maybe 2+ hours, I came from a laptop with 12 cell battery to this one so i was spoiled. Overall a very nice computer for the price, especially if you don't want a huge screen.

If you are buying a labtop for the first time or just replacing the one you have this computer has it all, and the price is not bad either. With the 4 gb DDR3 memory and the 500 md harddrive is more than enough for everyday needs. Also the built in Webcam, WiFi and 17.3" screen are a added bonus. With Windows 7 as the operating system, it is really no different than Vista. There are only a few difference between the 2 OS, should make for an easy transition.

I got this camera for my 12 year old to take on a vacation. She has had no problems learning to operate it. The software that downloads to your computer as soon as you plug in the usb is easy to use and understand. I looked for quite awhile to find a camera that was easy, inexpensive, small and would take "stills" as well as video--- this is a nice option without being too cheap. It was cheaper in the store than online however- so might be worth a drive to an actual store. The only drawback I have found so far is that the memory can only be downloaded to a computer so if you are on an extended trip (more than a day or two) and plan to film alot you might be better off with a camera that had internal memory and a memory card to expand your filming capability.

Even though it has vista, my upgrade to 7 is on it's way. Don't know why others complain of this unit crashing, no such trouble here. I am a heavy user. There is no visible hard drive sync light in the front. Noticed by accident that it is located in back.So if you like to keep an eye on hard drive activity, you have to set this up on your desktop. Other than that I am very happy.

We owned a cyber shot that after a few years and many drops broke. We love this camera, the picture quality is the best! It is very easy to use as well. When we bought our new cybershot we were dissapointed in the zoom capibility. We ordered our new cyber shot camera on line and didn't get to play with it before our purchase. I would highly recommend going into the store to view the camera because when we went to return it, we had to pay an expensive restocking fee even though the box and contents were in new condition. If a zoom isn't that important, I would highly recommend this camera, we loved it, untill we wanted to photograph sports at a distance.

Purchased this machine to replace an Acer that had a motherboard die after 15 months! Very easy set-up. Great for family use - internet surfing, game playing and uploading pictures to share.

I thought that i had done my homework and decided to purchase this computer. On the surface it really looked like a good computer however, within the 5 hours of using this computer it froze several times, lagged and had 3 dreaded blue screen messages and shutdowns! Not cool. I also had problems with the sound and video camera.
I will say that I didn't get the geek squad upgrades and I think this was the problem. However, i don't think you should have to buy upgrades from the store you purchased it from in order for the computer to run smoothly. In the end I returned this computer in less than 24 hours for a mac and IM VERY VERY HAPPY!
I gave mircosoft a change and they blew it, lol.

Great looks. Plastic keys are a little more difficult than metal keys. Like the way everything is layed out. Having some difficulty with "IE 8" with closing program messages alot. Over all though this is the best computer I've ever had.

I have my first grandchild. Naturally I want to take lots of pictures. This camera lets me excellent pictures without using the flash. I'm able to get great close-ups without being bothersome with a flash. It's small enough to carry in a pants or coat pocket.

Well what can I say? I LOVE IT! I don't understand how you gonna make something so SLEEK/SEXY but not make it with a good battery life. You already took away the SD card, must you take away the life of the Camera as well? If you end up getting this, I suggest you get an extra battery if not look for a battery with a bigger mAh. There is currently a 750mAh that comes with the camera, so anything higher then that is what you are looking for. I came across a 650mAh at the Best Buy store but of course that is not good enough. So I will continue to search for bigger battery. I suggest you keep the camera on Auto so your photo's come out good with out having to set anything, but if you camera person and you know how to adjust things then you can go to program. Although this camera has the small LCD I would suggest not to use it all the time unless it is a must to help conserve power, in addition to that there are two features on the camera to help conserve power as well.

I bought this laptop to replace my 4 year old Compaq.I bought this on sale for $429, but now it looks like that is the permanent price. Overall, I am happy with the purchase, so far everything has worked well. But I thought I'd just list a few issues for potential owners:
I do a lot of traveling and one of the main selling points for me was the built in microphone and web cam. BEWARE: The microphone and sound quality is HORRIBLE. I've barely been able to complete a phone or video call, because of the frustration from both myself and whoever I've tried to talk to. I've seen the suggestion about changing the settings in some of these reviews, and also by just doing a Google search, and while that improved the quality a little bit, it remains BAD. I'm very disappointed with this. Now, I have to invest more money in a microphone, when I shouldn't have to.
This is another small complaint,and I don't know if anyone else has had an issue with it, but when I tried to change the

Running smooth as silk with 64 or 32 bit apps. Great range and speed with my DIR-655 router and the built in WAN adapter. Tried to max out memory with multiple programs running and it did not miss a beat. Windows 7 seems to be solid. The only thing that raised an eye brow is I had the task bar flicker one time when I was using Firefox. Closed Firefox and fired it back up and the problem was gone. I am very happy with this purchase. I hope you will be also.

Please adjust your settings for the microphone. This microphone is GREAT but settings must be adusted. See what I posted some days ago when I noticed that settings were off:
This is what got me excellent recording sound on microphone of G60-945DX:
1. Go to control panel /hardware and sound /sound/recording/mic/ properties/advanced
change settings to last one which is 2channel 24 bit, 96000hz studio quality.
Uncheck EVERYTHING on the advanced window
2. When in SKYPE go to Call/audio settings
Uncheck automatically adjust audio settings and move recording level to middle between min and max
Save and make a test call
Enjoy

I bought this laptop a little over a week ago and I absolutely love it! It was set up at best buy and was ready to go when I walked out of the store, it couldn't have been easier! It is easy to use and the blue ray is unbelievable! I bought the cord to connect it to my hdtv and it looks great on the big screen too! if you want a laptop under $1000, this is the one! You can't find a better product for the price! Enjoy! I am!

It's almost like the previous Sony camera I had, so it's easy to use, pics come out very clear...Have not used enough times quite yet so not much else I can say.

Picture quality is better than expected for its size. Contents download with ease onto your laptop and you are ready to film again. Overall a great product for catching moments you would miss if you had to drag out the big camcorder.

Just picked this laptop up at the beginning of the week and so far I love it. It has all of the features that you could possibly need for home use. It runs fast for having an AMD processor in it. The screen size is perfect, not to big, but not to small. It runs the same resolution as HP's 15.6 inch models, but without the extra size and weight. Windows 7 is amazing so far. Went from XP to 7 and I find it very easy to navigate and it offers far more features, like Windows Media Center. The only downfall that I have run into is that the battery life while running multiple programs is below par. I get, at best, 2 hours of life before I have to plug it back into the charger and this is typically running only two to three programs at a time. Also the trackpad will take some getting used to, as it is completely smooth and offers a strange resistiveness. Which makes it tough, to move unless you are barely touching it. So overall, outside of battery life, you will not find a machine that runs to

Unbeatable value. Bought as a "desktop replacement" for my son in sophomore year. More than enough here to see him through to college. Especially good value when purchased with Office during the recent promotion.
Get something smaller if you need to travel (we have a shared family netbook for days when one of us has to travel with a PC).

Overall, it gets me from point A to point B, but the graphics card is pretty weak, its rated as a 3.4 for games. i do play a few games here and there, and my games dont really display right (AOE2). i probably should have spent a couple hundred more on something with a better graphics card.

Overall, I love this laptop! It's fast, pretty light-weight, and easy to use. For the price I paid....excellent product! I like the glossy look, but don't like the smudges that you can see after you touch it. But that is a minor thing. Overall, again, great computer!!
