There's a Windows 7 upgrade available for around £20 (until Jan 31st 2010) via Packard Bell's website and that should be a worthwhile option as it promises to be notably faster and more compatible. Mine arrived with Vista Home Premium installed but no 'restore' discs in the package, you have to burn your own (needs 3 blank DVD's) soon after setting-up your laptop. The DVD reader/writer is a tray-loader which works well (if a little noisily) but does feel slightly exposed and fragile compared to slot-loaders.

The viewing angle isn't the best I've seen - it's almost always an issue with laptop screens - and altho it's fine for general computing it's not so good when you play a DVD movie and you might notice the dreaded 'negative-shadow' more than you'd like - especially in movies with a lot of dark scenes.

The glossy screen has an LED backlight so it's very bright and clear and doesn't need to 'warm-up' to reach full brightness.

There's also an indicator light for Bluetooth here which is annoying since PB haven't included a bluetooth chip in this laptop, which is a real shame. The touch-buttons along the top of the keyboard allow you to adjust or mute the volume, disable the touchpad, toggle power-saving, toggle WiFi and initiate a one-touch backup solution PB have included (which of course requires an external storage solution). There are also a few useful gesture-controls supported by the trackpad, some aren't enabled by default and you must go to Control Panel/Mouse to configure them. The keyboard includes a numeric keypad which can be a real advantage, especially if you spend a lot of time in spreadsheets or accounts software. The TJ65's glossy 'Moonstone' (aka 'brown') top is restrained but different and tones well with the glossy/matt black interior - it does all look a little bit plastic-y but actually feels solid and well-made with no creaky-squeaky sounds as you use it.

Times change and Packard Bell are now owned by Acer - and it shows. I admit I was a bit biased against Packard Bell because I've been around home computing long enough to remember them as a manufacturer of not-very-exciting 'budget' PC's (I'm being diplomatic here) 25 years ago.
