It needs two USB connections. Draws quite a bit of power so if you use a USB hub, make it a powered one. Once up, it's reliable, but not very fast.

Screen amazing. Functionality high. Boot time almost instant. Out of the box working great. Touch screen sensitive. Need a few 'wipes' to keep screen smudge fee when using touch screen. Pricey, but worth it.

How can I adjust my display to enlarge some of my applications like WebEx?

Although the graphic display of this system are stellar, the compatibility with other applications such as WebEx are not. This display makes my WebEx sessions so small I have to view them under a magnifier to see who has signed on to the session and now my demo I do my sales pitch from is so tiny it won't show up when projected and I can barely read it. Help!
I had similar problems with quite a few applications. Have you tried 64 bit versions vs. 32? Also, a friend ran some of his through the XP emulator with no problems.

Flickering at Low Brightness

I just purchased this laptop, but I am noticing that at low brightness on battery, the screen flickers randomly, especially right after coming out of sleep mode. This is NOT from the automatically adjusted screen brightness power saver, which is turned off on my computer. Is this a problem that anyone else has noticed from their Best Buy computer? I am considering returning it and purchasing another one, but I am afraid it will be the same on the other one.
Yes. The system will automatically adjust brightness depending upon ambient lighting conditions. It flickers sometimes when 'adjusting.'Once I moved to an area with a 'steady' light, everything normalized. I see you turned off the 'automatic brightness', but it will do it anyway.
