Yes, I believe so. I had one break..just haven't replaced it. Although it has been a few months since I've used this wonderful machine...I don't recall it being a big issue. Hope this helps ;) PS. This comes w/a DVD instructional material...really helpful!

Bro, an ultrabook for 500$, you take what you get! The machine is plenty fast enough for popular needs. The most strenuous activity I use it for is video djing, and it's plenty fast for that too. If you're looking for a machine to do something like video editing, don't be looking in the 500$ price range! Overall, it's a great machine for the price.

No, it's a good machine. Lot's of bike for the money. The only problems I have with the bike are all with the operator.

Nope! The machine has been flawless from day one. I've had the computer for about 9 plus months.

Apart from the troublesome and possibly fatal hardware quality defects that lurk in the e545, including the dubious "time bomb" thermal design, the machine is reasonably powerful and comfortable to use. The keyboard is actually kind of nice, and the little red "mouse" button works surprisingly well--these are well-known legacies of IBM. In general, the specs of my machine, had it been any good, would have been more than adequate for working in FrameMaker, Corel Draw, the Gimp, Inkscape, Visio, and even Captivate--the most demanding tools that I would be likely to need in my work as a technical writer. But for demanding CAD design tasks, build quality aside, I would go for a higher-end processor with better graphics and more RAM. You might do well with one of the higher-end (quad- to eight-core) AMD chips with Radeon graphics, but good luck in finding a quality motherboard and an adequate thermal design to go with it, except (maybe) in a desktop model. I believe the e545 can be configured with a higher-end AMD processor, but in your place, I wouldn't be tempted. Buying this computer is equivalent to playing Russian roulette. Spend more money and spare yourself the problems. I hate to say it, but if your software will run on the OS, you might want to consider a Macintosh.

Hi,This is a pretty good machine with no obvious shortcoming that I could find (I have this one for a few weeks). The best thing is this is one of the best buy for this price range. I will be cautious about the DVD drive thought - it seems somwhat flimsy./Abhijit

Yes.It is a solid machine. Buy with confidence. Had a bad switch - emailed customer service and had a replacement overnite. No hassle and didn't even ask to return defective switch.

??? Not sure what you mean by 'it'. If you're asking about reliability, I've had a 2 year trouble-free experience with this excellent machine. Using it every day.
