Pros: Fast for its time
Cons: Noisy, noisy, noisy, and electrical problems

The main thing you notice about this is the noise. Even with quality earplugs, it's still too noisy to concentrate. Spend the extra to get a processor designed for mobile computing.

Also had some technical glitches when first bought that required reformatting / reinstalling.

Battery connection stopped working after a couple years. It appears to switch to battery mode, but after a few moments the electric current stops and the screen suddenly blacks out. Isn't a problem with the batteries.
