This is my very first Celeron laptop and I have to tell you that I am surprised and amazed at the performance of this particular Celeron. Todays Celeron CPUs are NOT the Celeron CPUs of 10 years ago. These new Celeron 900 are based on Core 2 Duo CPUs. They are exactly the same except for 2 things: They have 25% less Cache than their Core 2 Duo counterpart and they are single core, but that doesn't mean it's slow by any means. This laptop came with 2GB of RAM (I upgraded it to the full 4GB), a 15.6" HD LCD Screen, a 250GB Hard Drive running at 7200 RPM - yes you are reading right - 7200 RPM! - Most laptops out there have a 5400 RPM HD, including the more expensive models, so this is a real bonus. It comes with B, G, and N Wireless, Intel 4500 Graphics, 2 USB Ports and a DVD Writer.The performance of this...

I had my doubts about the Celeron processor but they were unfounded. The processor opens and closes programs quickly, boots up fast and runs multiple applications at once with no problems or lag. I find 2gb of ram to be the sweet spot when it comes to ram. Unless I'm doing any sort of rendering I'll never max out my ram even with all of my programs open. It is nice to know I can upgrade to 4gb of ram if need be, however. All in all, I could not be happier with the performance of this computer.Performance aside there are some things about the laptop that I dislike. The most annoying thing to me is the lack of dedicated volume control buttons. I need to press the "fn" key along with "+", "-" or "*" to control volume up, volume down and mute. The computer also comes loaded with pre-installed programs so be prepared to spend some time uninstalling them. Personally, I also wish the...

This is my second computer to have a Celeron processor. The first one was crap. Nothing but crap. It overheated all the time and was very slow. I decided to buy this computer after a few of my friends told me that it was better than the previous generation of Celerons. They're right. This computer is capable of out-performing some of the higher-end processors - even with a single-core processor.The computer itself is very good. I would recommend this to anyone that wants a good, fast, cheap laptop. |
