Just like mine except I chose black cover and added Bluetooth? However, I am getting a replacement because my first one (typing on right now) has a defective screen that has 2 bright white spots at the lower left hand corner. I do hope the replacement will be fine.

 

hopefully mine comes out alright....I did actually get bluetooth, I don't know why it doesn't show it, oh well. Good luck with the replacment.

 

Good luck, and hope you enjoy it. Based on my experiences with the 1720 and 1520, you should like it. However, I would strongly suggest you upgrade the RAM. 2 GB gives you a nice amount of breathing space, and lets Vista work much better. Then again, you could try maxing out with 4 GB (3.5 GB with 32 bit) and see how that runs.

 

I recently upgraded to 2 GB RAM, and I must say; performance increases phenominally.

 

i do plan to do that....i figured it would be cheaper that way

 

Ya, upgrade to 2 GB of RAM. Vista go's so much faster.
