BenQ Joybook A33E

Good performance. Large, vibrant 15.4” screen that uses a matte rather than a gloss coating. Great port layout. Reasonable 60GB hard disk.

Relatively poor battery life. Slightly larger and heavier than other notebooks in its class. No Gigabit Ethernet or Bluetooth. Lacks a one-touch instant-on feature. No quick launch multimedia buttons. No memory card reader.

The A33E is a reasonable notebook for those on a budget, but its dearth of features and low battery life when compared to some of its competitors is undoubtedly a deterrent.

great for watching DVD's, even playing games
