Configuration and Setup 

The packaging was very thorough and securely packed. A separate box holds the battery pack, power supply, modem cable, quick start guide, a few bundled software, recovery CDs and some warranty information.

The notebook comes pre-installed with Windows Vista Home Premium, and it's bundled with several software packages including Microsoft works 8.5, Bulldog Anti-virus, Napster (1 month subsrciption) and Roxio creator 7. The onboard Realtek HD audio is a real bonus ... offering a wide range of audio options to configure the sound that you want.

As far as battey life is concerned, you will roughly get 3 hours on a full charge. Alternatively, you can use the AC power. It's definitely needed if you run any CPU intensive application or games. As far as weight is concerned, it's not the lightest ... weighing in at 3.1Kg, it's pretty heavy for a notebook.

Since the rock Pegasus 665 is not a business class notebook, you won't find a biometric fingerprint reader or any special security software for malware, spyware or firewall. However, you do get an Anti-Virus software from Bullguard and you can use Windows firewall, which does the job.

There are some negatives ... there's no built-in webcam or bluetooth support, which is really disappointing. If you market this notebook for multimedia in mind, then you really need those extras.
