i`m a general user too and i dont regret buying it, although it has some issues,

i really love the desktop screens and the way you can customize them, integrated skype, the webbrowser, the camera is good, etc.

downside are the missing apps and the fact that u need to download a lot of third party/community apps to get things going..

if you are willing to invest time on forums like these for troubleshooting then you should get it
