Great Laptop!

Reviewer Comments: I spent a lot of time researching laptops before choosing this one, but in the end I’m glad I did.

- The keyboard is very comfortable to type on once you get used to it.
- The screen is very crisp and clear (blu-rays look amazing!) although the backlight bleeds a little at the bottom (a little uneven). It’s only noticeable if the screen is black and at certain angles, otherwise, it’s not much of a hindrance.
- The speakers are also very good for a laptop, although a little quiet when watching blu-ray movies. Very little as far as lows and mids go, but you can’t expect thumping bass from laptop speakers anyways.
- Runs very cool on normal usage, and only gets warm when playing games or other processor intensive activities. Even then it’s still tolerable. Also runs very quiet.
- The graphics card is good enough to run most games. Left 4 Dead on max settings runs silky smooth, as does Team Fortress 2. Mass Effect also runs on medium-high settings at a decent framerate. Not the best card, but it’ll get the job done for those who game play PC games every once in awhile (I’m more of a console gamer myself).
- Battery life is about 2.5 hours on power saving mode. Nothing to write home about, but I rarely take it places, and when I do, there’s usually an outlet around.
- I don’t like how all three usb ports are on the front right of the laptop. Some of the stuff I plug in gets in the way of my mouse movement sometimes. This is a very small nuisance however, and easy to adjust to.
- It’s also sexy in the black/chocolate brown color. Very slim and it doesn’t feel too heavy, considering it’s a 16.4″ laptop.

All in all, I’ve found very little to complain about with this laptop. Great performance, built-in bluray with hdmi out to watch on your hdtv, and it’s just a really attractive looking laptop. For the price, you’re getting a lot from this great machine. Highly recommended!!!

C sharp, the whistle not the blade

Reviewer Comments: Do NOT give this to a young boy. I’m not worried about him cutting himself. I am worried about him driving you nuts blowing on the whistle all day and night long. A word to the wise is sufficient. Learn from my mistake.

So, so, boring and unexciting, too.

Reviewer Comments: Cons: I lose 0.00003 seconds off my commuting time because it’s not aerodynamic enough. Monochrome, doesn’t come in a swirling rainbow of delightful colors. Pros: It’s bulletproof, comfortable, stays in place, affordable, compatible with any bicycle except French ones, works for any riding style that involves moving forwards, has a light clip on the back, has plenty of room for reflective tape (I know, you’re not supposed to do that). I can only assume it will protect my skull; haven’t actually tried it out on a curb yet.

Long time user of Zi

Reviewer Comments: I’ve used virtually every other eye drop on the market and nothing comes close to the magic that’s inside these little bottles. I don’t know if they actually make unicorns cry and then bottle it up their tears or what the deal is, because that’s the closest thing I can imagine Zi resembling.

The other reviewers are right most eye drops are too thin, and don’t last long at all, these have a very slight thickness to the solution and it keeps your eyes moist for a long time. I like these better than the other Rohto drops since they aren’t as harsh. The others have a nice cooling effect but the initial sting isn’t worth it, in my opinion.

This is a real piece.

Reviewer Comments: I guess there is technically nothing incorrect about the description of this product. But I would say that its’ carefully worded language appears to be written by a politician. Let me reword the description for normal people.This is the fanciest cardboard box you have ever seen, but it is still a cardboard box. You can tell because the edges in plain sight show the structure. You have to figure out how to cut a nice slot in it and add the ribbon to make it look and work as shown. We will charge you [$] for a box that could have been shipped flat and probably for less than $10.
