Packard Bell Imedia X4520

Reasonably fast.

Poor quality DVD mechanism and very difficult to connect the PC up to the internet.

good, easy and fast the kids love it.

windows 7 , struggles with wireless connections for now.

Fast, quick system start up. Excellent graphics and sound for my needs

Makes a bit of a rattle when it boots up - nothing like as quiet at that as my old Dell PC- and the build has a bit of a cheap plastic feel to it . Main gripe was the screen that formed part of the Packard Bell package - the widescreen does not seem to...

Easy to use, even for someone non technical like me. Fast.

Noisy, tends to buzz or whine a bit.
