This deal is pretty good, but I have seen so many horror stories about this laptop.

Where did you hear these horror stories? I haven't found anything? Did I make a mistake?

this laptop works well, i'm using it right now. with the radeon 9200, games are awesome. I'm currently playing NFS underground on it w/ no slowdowns at highest resolution/settings

just get the latest bios flash so the keyboard glitches don't happen

No, it's a good laptop.

Although it has numerous problems, most can be fixed through updates.

Don't fret.
