   The laptop ran decently for the three months I had it then one day I came back from class and it wouldn’t come on.The only thing I download to that laptop was Anti-Virus software.I took it to a computer repair shop today and they told me that there was nothing they could do to make it come on. The company I bought this laptop from should give me my cash back.

   Hmmmmmmmmm where to start…The item I received was a gift for my husband and to our surprise, when he got it, it was NOT the laptop I had ordered. I have tried in 4 recent attempts to get a hold of the seller via e-mail feedback owing to Amazon. To no surprise, he knew he screwed me, so why would he answer any e-mails from me or anyone else he dishonestly sold a product to, knowing it was not the product they had ordered and paid him for.

   I feel like he should NOT be allowed to sell products of any kind on any website if he cannot be trusted by that websites customers to send them EXACTLY what they ordered and paid for and nothing less. I am extremely disappointed that this has happened. I have bought before from Amazon and will take up again to do so, but never from a private seller, never again. This experience has ruined me. I reckon it is a shame and he should be forced to stop selling on Amazon, but that’s just my opinion, as a customer.

   TY Amazon for being courteous and patient owing to all this and doing whatever possible you could do. Like I said I will take up again to buy from you guys, but never a private seller again. You have to make a mistake to learn from it, and this was my mistake.

   I bought one of these laptops two months ago. It has been working just fine. Today Microsoft told me that the license is not valid. It has a valid certificate of authenticity on the back but does not have a second “refurbished” CoA. When I look at the internal System Properties/General tab it says “XP Corporate” which means it was covered under a volume/site license which can not be transferred or sold. I will probably have to buy a original copy of XP ($150) and re-install.

   Before I made the order I checked to see that the advertisement specified “Genuine Windows XP”. I also checked the CoA when it arrived. When the Microsoft updater offered to run “Genuine Advantage” to check the authenticity I confidently thought “sure, go right ahead.” Now every time I restart I get a huge message that says I am a victim of software piracy. I expect the operating system will eventually simply stop running.

   It has served me well the few weeks I have had it now. The wi-fi is keeping me connected as I’m typing this from a hotel room. The processor is nice and quick. There are four high-speed USB connections. The unit is solidly built (perhaps a mite heavy).

   My only criticisms are as follows:

   The screen resolution doesn’t look quite as sharp as on my desktop monitor. I’d say, maybe 85% as sharp, so it’s ordinarily barely noticeable. The other thing is that the soundcard doesn’t have all the mixer capabilities you might expect to find in a desktop. I don’t know if this is common in laptops and I sort of stumbled upon the issue. But I got around it by purchasing an external mixer from the Guitar Center.

   I initially intended it only as a travel companion but have since begun using it in my recording studio (with Cakewalk Music Creator). Oh, and to play SimCity (which doesn’t work on Vista!) All in all, I am quite satisfied with it.

   The seller shipped it out immediately and it arrived by FedEx or UPS (I forget which) in a topic of days (two or three, as I recall — it was quick).
