Comment:
I would be lost without it. I love the size great to take anywhere. Some people don't like the size, I think it's great. The bigger lap tops are too heavy, this fits in my bag. I have it in the kitchen, great for following recipes or getting my e mail. I have owned this for over 3 years and have dropped it quite a few times and never a worry. i would get another one in a heartbeat.
How long have you owned it:
More than six months
