I should mention there are some drawbacks. The keyboard layout is a bit awkward; the space key is very short and the placement of the Ctrl, Fn and Del keys are not standard. The computer has a tendency to run hot and when the fan kicks it, it's quite noisy. There's no firewire port. The battery only lasts about 2.5 to 3 hours. (Incidentally, regardless of what kind of laptop you buy, it's important to look after the battery properly. Li-ion batteries will lose effectiveness if they are overcharged or left in full charge without use.)
Those are fairly minor complaints, though. Overall, I'm very pleased with this laptop. I've had it for a month now, and it's been a real joy to use.
