I have to agree it does look too good to be true, especially when you consider the same laptop (or very similar at least) is going for about £600 on other sites. It looks like a genuine offer so I`ve taken the plunge buying it for my wife. Fingers crossed there`s noo sting in the tail!

I have just been contemplating purchasing this and have no idea about laptops at all. However my 18 year old son works in IT and he says it is an amazing buy so fingers crossed for once lets hope hes right!

I ordered this for my wife last week and it arrived within 2 days and she`s made up with it. Its a gorgeous laptop and worth every penny. Although it looks too good to be true I can honestly say it is a genuine good deal. I`m a PC Support engineer and can say the build quality of this pc is almost perfect. The only downside is the placings of the usb ports. They`re on the right-hand side of the laptop near the front corner so that if you use a usb mouse and are right-handed it can get a bit annoying keep tangling up in the cable. Then again if you get a wireless mouse it wont be an issue. Other than that the keyboard feels very classy and the screen and quality for £499 is a steal.
Quick, buy one before they sell out! LOL
