That "Win XP Pro (Windows7 Recovery Media)" was in the specs given to us.. I heard my boss question the OS that's gonna be on the laptop (seeing that they're unfamiliar with Win7).. so I'm not sure if the IT people altered anything..

but it would be stupid of them to put XP on it when we're running Vista in the office.. but you never know with these people.. I dont trust them.. xD

The wording is odd. It appears that you will have Windows XP Professional preloaded, with the option of transitioning to Windows 7 Ultimate via a recovery partition on the hard drive. This is odd, since it is usually the other way around.

2GB RAM may cause bottlenecking, even though it is theoretically possible to run CAD and other more intensive programs with only 1GB RAM. The hard drive is also very small, especially when hard drives are being made in 1TB and higher variants nowadays. If you choose, you may buy a bigger hard drive, and it might be cheaper in the long run.

Graphically, you will be limited exclusively to basic work applications. Watching full screen videos may cause some FPS lag, and rendering and graphics design, as well as gaming, are obviously out of the question.

The starting price point on these laptops are not impressive at all, however.

Looks like it's just good enough for the basics...
