expensive and unreliable
IBM bios does not let you connect any peripheral to it; unless you change it, you are stuck with a machine that needs IBM's own CD-ROM and & all.
The performance is average and the video performance is nill.
Very senstive to shocks - internally and TFT-wise; would say more like a desktop than a laptop;
Service is baaaaad; expect waiting in a qew for ages (recorded 37 minutes for 5 calls). Apart from that, IBM's bureaucracy and miriad of emails and letters and calls, with little or no beneffit to the client. So I understand why all these overheads are absorbed in the price of the product.
The machine bundles components that you may easily find at medium range brands.
I will not buy ever again any IBM and I do not recommend to anybody.
HP, Toshiba or Panasonic are on my shopping list from now.
