1. highly unlikely
those free systems have the crappiest internals, and will just frustrate you to hell. like my gateway from best buy at work does. 2 mb cache on 5400 rpm drive, SLOOWWW!!

3. Well it won't be my primary system or anything.
It'll just be a fun toy to play with, haha.

2. I'm enjoying mine

although the screen is awfully small.

My bro gave it to me for Christmas. I've never had a laptop and it's so much more convenient than my PC. Don't know how it'll hold up over time, tho.

On edit- is the bank offering a PC or a "baby laptop", as I call mine?
