    It does the job

    I had to collect my parcel from a relay point because the delivery driver didn't come to my house as planned.
    The delivery drivers probably have too much work and prefer to drop the parcel off directly at the relay point rather than spending time delivering it by hand.
    Otherwise everything works fine, apart from an audio conflict that I haven't had time to sort out yet.

    Powerful for the price

    I use it for office work. The graphics card allows me to manage my multiple windows on several screens.
    3D architecture software. Lasts a reasonable 3 to 4 hours on batteries. Attractive price.
