    which network card do you mean?

    I hope wireless network is fast and stable.

    When I do buy this laptop, I wanted to upgrade all the latest drivers. it shouldn't be a problem?

    A few wonky bits here and there, but otherwise a solid build - especially the hinges and screen.

    I concur. Pretty solid build, nothing outstanding but nothing poor. Only issue is part of my 'L' key is chipped. Don't know how that happened lol.
