Excellent by Francisco Casta�eda on amazon.com Jul 1, 2012
Excellent product, no complaints at all, but it could be because I am using oneiric on it, I also bought more memory however my overall experience so far has been great.
 
Not what I thought I wanted by gg on staples.com Nov 15, 2011
My old desktop just died one day, so in a rush we went into Staples to purchase a new CPU, when asked if I wanted a laptop I said I wasn't really thinking about one. So after much back and forth on the pros and cons of different laptops, we decided the ...
 
Good laptop by D. Strout on newegg.com Dec 5, 2011
Got pretty much this exact model from another site, except with 6GB memory. With that and the Core i5 with Turbo Boost, this is an excellent machine for ordinary everyday use. I would recommend you throw in 2-4GB more of memory, since its pretty cheap. ...

"Great price for a great product." by STLsport on cnet.com Jan 3, 2011
I'm surprised at some of the poor ratings on here. But keep in mind that when people are angry with a product they need to vent, while a satisfied customer may not feel the need to write a review; so you have to take online reviews with a grain of salt. ...

Not happy with this laptop by RoRo on staples.com Nov 15, 2011
Not sure if it is a problem with the laptop or windows 7 but it constantly freezes up and I have to unplug & remove the battery to shut down. Control, alt & delete does nothing. Also changes software and the way puter loads items, makes many changes each time I log on.

Loaded with good hardware...Fine performance...Includes two USB 3.0 ports, WiMAX support....Other similarly priced laptops are more powerful...Some bloatware preinstalled....The chiclet-style keyboard uses slightly scalloped keys that offer good travel and should provide sufficient typing room even for those with larger hands...Weighing 5.8 pounds, the I15RN-5882DBK is approaching the heavier side, but it’s still easily manageable...There’s a solid selection...
