Design – Optimal Use

This is a mid-level laptop that is Very loaded up, with a good balance of power and portability. It weighs 6lbs and has a larger 15.6" screen, so it's probably not for "on the go" types. However, it has more than average amount of memory and a 3rd generation Intel CPU with enough power to handle pretty much all home or small office tasks like browsing, email, office applications, etc. Huge hard drive should handle any chores. Gamers however should look for a purpose-built notebook with a faster processor and discrete graphics chip.
