What you should know

What Is A Cell? It's a
battery
Though technically a battery has multiple cells, we are accustomed to calling a
single energy cell a battery as well.In
electronics, a battery or voltaic cell is a combination of many electrochemical
Galvanic cells of identical type to store chemical energy and to deliver it in
the form of electricity. The battery cells combine to produce more energy
(voltage or amps) than a cell by itself. When joined in this way, it is a
battery of cells. Almost all portable electronics use one or more cells -
rechargeable or disposable. The more cells, the more energy available -
meaning more hours of use usually.
In Notebook computers, the battery case usually
holds three or more cells. 3 Cell batteries tend to provide about 1-3
hours of use, depending on the energy needs of the Laptop. 6 cell (or
more) batteries provide much more energy, and many more hours of use. This
can be good or bad! More cells mean longer use, but more weight too!
So remember to always check for the number of
cells if specified, and choose the right configuration for your use.
Battery Trivia:
The invention of the first battery (known as a Voltaic pile) was in 1800 by
Alessandro Volta! The first known usage of the battery (as we know it
today) was in 1863 by the physician named Flora Bills. |

Recovery Media
Most computer systems no longer include "Recovery Media" (Disks or CDs used to restore your computer system to it's factory shipped state). Many do not even include Operating System disks.
This is not specific to systems purchased from any one company, but now standard practice throughout the entire industry.
However, many manufacturers include software on the hard drive that creates recovery media for you. This allows burning your own set of recovery CDs or DVDs - all you need is the blank media.
Inclusion of such a recovery utility varies by manufacturer and model; not all manufactures and models include such a utility. For those that include such a utility we recommend you create your own set of recovery media after completing the Windows installation. In other words, right after you start using your PC!
If you fail to do this and encounter a difficulty in the future you may not be able to properly restore your computer.
Some manufacturers may have physical recovery media available separately for purchase; consult your owner’s manual support information section for additional information. Systems that do not come with a CD/DVD burner may still include Recovery Disks - please check the manufacturer's specs.

Customer Reviews
Good Value
This is the perfect option for anyone who needs a laptop for everyday computing purposes. No problems and runs smoothly.
Great Deal
I am a frugal college student,and buying something online has always scared me. When I first got my laptop, the touch pad did not work. I called the appropiate people and I sent it back and it was replaced in a timely manner. It's a great deal for what you are getting and runs smoothly. No problems so far!
Wife likes it
Brought this for my wife, who does not like computers very much, to help keep her small business records on. It is easy, to use works well, has a decent start-up speed, and my wife can take it anywhere in the house and use it. Consequently, she is on it every day, sometimes for hours. It will pay for itself next year at tax time.
HUGE UPGRADE!
Granted I was working on an eight year old Dell laptop, but this is just like the headline says a huge upgrade. I took the advice of some of the other reviews and removed all the bloat ware, and just put the programs on it that I use, but it has performed awesome!
Solid Laptop
I got this laptop for my family. They have been using it for a month now. Had to remove some blotware first and install the touchpad drivers from the samsung website. Machine boots up about 12-15 seconds. Good features such as usb 3.0, blue-ray, etc. This is a good buy for the price and you can send away for the $80 rebate (if its still avaliable).
