I ordered this on monday from a site called micro anvika, cause i live in the channel islands we dont get charged the VAT, so i was gonna call em today and refund me for that, but they beat me to it, called me at 10 in the morning to tell me theyve taken off the VAT and that theyre sorry but they wont be able to make their usuall delivery time due to having to ship it to the islands. now i think thats great service, what u guys think of the laptop and that?

Looks good. I prefer Intel for laptops, but a 3500+ will be quite fast. The only thing that stounds out is that your hard drive is only 4,200 RPMs.
