Wondering if any others that scored the $179 laptop would like to share their opinion of it? So far, I'm not overly impressed...and yes, I know it's a $179 laptop; I wasn't expecting a powerhouse. I knew Windows 8 came installed and I'm really not as upset about it as I thought I might be. It is a bit inconvenient on a non-touchscreen laptop, but not entirely impossible to navigate. My laptop is quite a bit slower than I hoped. I know the AMD C-60 is obviously low-end, but it is worse than I expected. Having snagges an eMachined $199 laptop a few BF's ago, I suppose I was hoping for more from this years model. The previous one had its quirks, but it was speedy enough for me. I am finding this $179 Compaq has trouble loading webpages amd video. Wondering if this is solely a processor thing, an internet thing (my home internet can be sketchy, but streams from my roku just fine) or if Windows 8 is just too much for this lappy to handle. Any thoughts? Has anyone else tried theirs out?

I'm in the same boat. Just don't feel that Windows 8 on a non-touchscreen device is a good deal? Anyone else had any experience using Windows 8 on a standars laptop? I'm thinking we may have better luck findijg a nin-BF Windows 7 laptop at a decent price. I'm even considering a refurb. Any thoughts on this?
