Billed as a versatile entertainment laptop, it's an apt description for this desktop replacement. It features a comfortable 16-inch LED-backlit screen, so it's both bright and battery saving. The innards are impressive as well: Core i5 processor, 4GB DDR3 RAM, 500GB hard drive at 7200 RPM, NVidia GT325M graphics, webcam, WiFI b, g, and n -- it all adds up to "sweet." No Blu-ray drive, as many so-called "entertainment" laptops currently have, but it does have the all-important HDMI output, so you can hook it up to an HDTV and use it as a media server -- sometimes, 16 inches of screen just is not enough.
