    It all depends on what you want it to be capable of. But the cost to performance ratio is fine.

    I had this. I loved the keyboard feel. it felt very durable. I had it next to my N56VZ and hands down it had a much better quality feel. The keys were a bit firmer but didnt feel loose. The top had a more sold feeling then the n56vz. I also liked the metal keys the q500a had but it lacked a discreet gpu if i remember right.
