Typing on it now, I've been messing around with it for a couple hours. I never even allowed it to fully boot into Windows -- I immediately installed Ubuntu onto it. It's a surprisingly nice little machine for being only $150. I have a couple work laptops, a gaming rig, and I had been using a 8 year old Dell laptop as my daily Linux machine. This is definitely going to be taking the place of the Dell. I tested Stadia out on this (via Chromium) and it worked pretty well. Absolutely no complaints so far, I'll eventually get around to installing another 8gig stick as people have recommended.

Yes blank 2.5 cage is in place (white casing to the side of the battery)
So the cage is there, how about any connector cable to the motherboard ? Someone claims one may need to find a suitable cable to hook up the SATA drive. Thanks.

I unfortunately didn't check and packaged it back up for Christmas

Wonder if there is anything that can be done for those of us still stuck in "Preparing". I mean it has been three whole days. I don't expect things to ship right away but it seems like others got theirs shipped already.

Not sure. It is rather odd that the people who ordered first will get theirs last (or maybe not at all?). I ordered during the first minute on 11/11, but that one hasn't shipped. I ended up ordering a second one on 11/13 (2 days after the first one) and my second one was already shipped via FedEx.

Just received mine this morning, people who said this laptop is slow definitely missing out! Installed photoshop and a few other apps. Boot up is really fast, tested a few apps and they are all very snappy. I was expecting something similar to last year 14w which I end up returning. This one is definitely much faster. What a steal for just $134.1 (A friend work in walmart helped me get another 10% off)

The display is OK. not as good as my other laptop with FHD IPS, but it's actually quite decent. The left and right viewing angle is pretty good. Viewing from the top is very bad. I just switched out of s mode and working through all the updates, so I haven't had a chance to run video on it.

Thanks. Please keep us posted. I am still waiting on my pickup email. But overall the feedback here is pretty positive for a $150 laptop

That's good to know! Did you install additional memory?

Mine has been out for delivery since 9:30 am. It's frustrating! Hopefully will have it soon.

No, I may keep it as 4GB for now, since this is mainly to upgrade my boy's 10 years old laptop with pentium dualcore and just 3GB ram, He has been using that old system since March for school (zoom), scratch and lego mindstorms, So this laptop should be a huge upgrade for him.
