I bought this to replace a computer that truly wasn't old, but wasn't performing at the level I needed. I edit lots of photos and using both Lightroom and Photoshop at the same time typically sent my patience over the edge. This computer was able to publish an edited video, create a Power Point presentation, AND type this review all at the same time without any delays! I'm in Heaven! The graphics are also amazing. My previous computer lacked in that area and as a photographer that was my main reason for the upgrade. So far I am VERY pleased at the quality I've seen for the few days I've used this. I'm already putting this thing to good use! Great purchase!!

But with Toshiba leaving the market and a need for a GeForce graphics capability I decided to try HP. This computer is amazing and fast. I love it. Since I do simulation modeling, the 3D graphics is very important to me. The high resolution graphics on this computer easily support this simulation. A well built product that just performs amazingly.

Never buy a laptop on line unless you actually seen the actual model. This laptop has the worst keyboard I have ever seen. It is black keys on a black base without any backlighting. The keys are not only hard to see but also hard to read. I installed a silver keyboard skin which made quite an improvement. But the top row of keys, the function keys, are so narrow they are almost useless. That probably is the result of the way the speaker is mounted as well as the location of the USB and HDMI ports near the hinge. Bad, bad design. And the sound is very weak from the speakers in comparison to the speakers on the ASUS laptops. One reason I bought this laptop was that it had an optical drive which works well but in my opinion, the arrangement of the ports and drive are awkward. Having the ports near the hinges makes them more difficult to access and having the optical drive near the front makes it not only awkward to use, it gets in the way. I also...
