    Indeed, I reviewed this for TR toward the end of May. Great for price, but it is a bit ugly.

    Might I ask where from? Has she ordered it direct off the Evesham website perchance?

    Only... I ordered one on the Evesham website myself about a month ago (I mentioned it in the 'Latest Purchases' thread at the time)... only to receive an email a few days later, to tell me they couldn't get the wireless card for two weeks or so!
    A couple of days later, I received another email to tell me they were unlikely to get the wireless card before the first week in July (over a month after I ordered the laptop) - and possibly even later than that :jawdrop: :wallbash:

    I subsequently cancelled the order... and only then found out that they'd actually taken the money from my account immediately after I'd placed the order :jawdrop:
    I subsequently received a full refund, but the point is... they shouldn't have taken my money until the product was ready to be shipped :nono:

    Hence why I'm skeptical that your girlfriend will actually get it "in the next week" :idea:
    Of course, we're now into July, so they (Evesham) may have managed to sort out the stock problems by now.. but it's too late from my point of view. I subsequently bought a competitor laptop!

    17" is just way too huge in my opinion. I couldnt get any larger than my 12" XPS M1210 :)
