    Please help me. Many of my friends told me that MSI Laptops has a poor quality. I'm going to buy an MSI CX61 ONF with an i7 processor equipped. I just want to know if the quality will really last. What my friends told me really bothers me from buying this product.

    By the looks of that laptop, it seems to be a Wal-Mart special IMO. Those types of laptops are generally built with the cheapest components and usually never last. If you don't mind me asking, what are you paying for that laptop and what do you intend to use it for? If its for gaming, I'm sure you can find much better options.

    As far as MSi being cheap or lasting, the answer is yes they do last, and are great laptops IMO. But like any manufacturer of literally anything, sometimes there are defective units. I've owned 3 MSI laptops over 4 years and never had a defective unit yet.

    I'm gonna use it for moderate gaming and some school works like coding and etc. I'm not much in video editing or related stuff.

    I would use the what notebooks should I buy segment of the forum to get the best idea, follow the sticky guidelines.
