Very good but some rough edges

Good quality built, great screen brightness and excellent sound (Harman Kardon speakers with subwoofer make a difference ).
Performance is very good with a fast CPU, 2 Gigs of RAM and 300 Gb HDD. It is good to have Vista Ultimate so you can log in to a domain in work and have media center as well at home.

I have not tried it in 3D intensive apps that push the graphic card.

In my opinion it has only a couple weak points: 1) short battery life (always less than 2 hours no matter how I tried to tweak it, and about one hour in full power mode), 2) a very big and heavy power adaptor (about the double of my previous Satellite) ,and the Qosmio is a bit big and heavy for a 15.4" notebook compared to the Satellites.

In summary : A powerful laptop that sacrifices some portability and battery life.
