    CNET Review

    April 30, 2004

    The Good: Low price; big, bright screen; 802.11g wireless; DVD+/-RW drive.

    The Bad: Comparatively short battery life; large and heavy; toll-based tech support only during limited hours.

    The Bottom Line: This stylish desktop replacement is a serious choice for the budget conscious only if you can stomach some irksome tech-support policies.
