its been great so far with two very small exceptions the monitor is acting odd but it seems a lot have this problem of the usb ports being flaky and the brightness setting is not showing up in the system prefs or when you press the brightness button. and of course the one missing speaker but I will find one soon and fix it. Im going to put this 80gb hd I have in it so I can fit all my music on it. I would like to upgrade the cpu and the display card but we will see I am a bit broke at the moment.
