I am no tecno geek and my needs are relatively simple when it comes to computing so this laptop fits my lifestyle perfectly. I had no problem setting the Envy 6 up to begin using it. It was ready to go in seconds with its built in wifi. I've used the same Dell XPS for about three years, so this laptop is a welcome addition. It's super lightweight and very thin, not bulky or uncomfortable at all. Compared to my other computer, the Envy 6 is super comfortable to use. I think it would be perfect for students and seniors due to the ease of transport, battery life, and ease of operation and because it is so lightweight. I have been using Windows Vista for several years now so using Windows 7 on this notebook is so much nicer, Vista could be a pain, but I've had no problems with the operating system on this notebook and it has a lot of helpful advice to make using it easier and functional. There is no CD option on this version of the Envy Sleekbook, but it hooks up easily to an external CD drive to install programs or watch movies. The resolution and picture on the Envy is wonderful, after looking at this screen and going back to my Dell was suprising to me. The graphics on the Envy are crisp and colorful. The Envy also has bluetooth/wireless so it can be used with other wireless items like printers and phones.
The Envy also has some great features for pictures. It uses Youcam webcam software and it has a lot of fun options for pictures. My kids have been having a lot of fun using it. There are enough fun things on Youcam to keep them amused for long periods of time, even in low light. When I downloaded pictures from my SD card, the computer separated the pictures by date so I could make different albums vs. lumping them altogether and the software also uses face recognition which is a really cool feature..............................
