I've had this laptop for a couple of days now and figured I had enough info to warrant at least a preliminary review. Overall, I'm quite pleased so far. This is the first time I've gone for a 17" screen and my first impression when I unboxed the laptop was that it was lighter and bigger than I expected, roughly the same weight as my 15.4" business laptop. My second impression was that everything was glossy, from the case to the palm-rest area to the screen. And, like many glossy surfaces, you'll find that it will show fingerprints far too easily. Keep a soft cloth with your laptop if this is something that will bother you.
Setting up the laptop was routine. There was a little bloatware to get rid of (e.g., ooVoo and a couple of other forgettable apps) but nothing significant, and nothing like my last experience, a Sony Vaio laptop that was practically unusable because of all the crud that Sony had pre-installed that was practically bringing the system to its knees.
The laptop is generously configured, with 6 GB memory, a 750 GB hard drive, an Intel i5-2410 2.3 GHz CPU, an ATI Radeon HD 6650M graphics chip switchable with the built-in Intel Mobile graphics chip (more on that below), a 17" 1600x900 display, a 2.0MP webcam, and a Blu-Ray drive that plays Blu-Ray discs and allows you to both play and record CDs and DVDs. It also has three USB 2.0 ports and one USB 3.0 port (that the description above omits), along with an HDMI output port and a memory card slot that can accept SD, MMC, MS, MS Pro, and xD cards. The Windows Experience Index (Windows 7 64-bit) is:
