In the reviews of the previous lack of a LAN connection has been criticized, but which is present with me. It is a gigabit interface, as there is nothing to complain about. It is also found in the picture above in addition to the VGA connector.
To Hardware:
The hardware is good to very good. Only the screen is very sensitive angle, ie from the side or even from the bottom one does not need to look at it since.
A DVD drive is not installed, but I do not need, or may need at one stuck to it.
And the keyboard is ... let's say ... getting used to, but certainly to use.
Size and weight convince. He is thin and light. Not to compare with my Dell Vostro 1500th
The battery looks real cute, but keeps well for 4-6 hours.
So all in all I am very satisfied.
Coming up times on the subject, set up, use.
(But that is not about hardware, because I am very satisfied with the)
I have an extra, a version with Windows 8 chosen because I wanted to spare me a device orgy.
Ok, that's gone off unfortunately backwards. Why?
Now I have turned on and set up the laptop. Then I reinstalled Firefox, because I do not like Internet Explorer.
And then came the rude awakening.
The launch of the Firefox took about 20 seconds.
The "normal" use torture.
After looking in the Task Manager, the system showed a continuous CPU load of 35-55% CPU and the plate was also highly frequented.
Who was it?
Firstly, the pre-installed antivirus software, on the other hand Tiworker.exe, a program for the Microsoft Update Manager belongs.
I'll spare you the rest, definitely I mussste the virus scanner remove and after a 3-hour Windows Update orgy (despite 150MBit DSL) also fixes (please Googling, I left must not) to import Tiworker.exe.
Nevertheless, would it have been difficult for a layman and completely honest, my first impulse was also the unit back to send the same back, because precisely the work with the device must have felt with me when I would use an Atom 270, so no trace of the really snappy processor.
So, but nu enough howled.
Otherwise, run "not current" games fluently, current rather not.
For my daughter, I have Star Table installed. Runs without jerking, fast and beautiful.
The benchmark of "X2-The Threat" it brings without antialiasing and with no shade at 70 fps, with shadows and anti-aliasing at 43 fps.
Meanwhile, I have the Firefox replaced on the system through Google Chrome (64-bit), because I have found out by tests that the Chrome only about 25-30% CPU load generated on pages with advertising or at Youtube, the Firefox but cute 60% CPU load is what makes the site structure and navigation but a little slow.
