Nice robust laptop
Nice robust laptop. The display is excellent and I like the back-lit keyboard. I think this is a "Frankenstein" machine - the service tag on the back doesn't match the service tag in the BIOS. Everything worked out of the box and it's still going with no problem. I eventually replaced the hard drive with a faster solid state drive and this laptop will suit my needs for a long time. If my wife's laptop fails, I will look for another E6500 for her. FWIW: The BIOS in this laptop has Computrace permanently enabled, which was launching "phone home" processes that slowed booting. But there is a way to permanently block Computrace and eliminate the unneeded processes :-D Read more
