Performance is, suprisingly, fine. But the screen that they used, really kind of sucks, compared to my Dell with the N2830.
I think that perhaps the Dell is using an IPS display. The A6-6310 seems to be using a cheaper TN display. The yellow bar above re-scaled images in this forum looks slightly pink.
There's a visible difference in brightness, between the top and bottom of the screen. And overall brightness and contrast is no-where near as good as the Dell. The Dell isn't even at a high brightness either.
Edit: Oh, the Lenovo bloatware sucks too. I'm already at a Commit Charge of nearly 4GB (on a machine with 4GB of RAM), with Waterfox open with like 5-6 tabs. Closing Waterfox only lowered RAM usage by like 300MB.
svchost.exe is taking up 1.2GB, but I don't know where all of the other RAM has gone. McAfee is taking up a bunch of RAM too, and the CPU (quad-core, even) doesn't seem to settle down. (Good thing it's a quad, I guess, with all of the bloatware. Urg.)
Edit: I have Windows Update disabled. Also, the keyboard is fairly nice, which is in (contrast, ha) to the screen. I guess that might have something to do with it's Lenovo roots, and the fact that this laptop came with a Pro version of Windows, so it's at least semi business oriented.
