Advent laptops are built by Quanta (who actually manufacture most of the World`s laptops). In general, the quality isn`t good. Try the keyboard and you may find it flexes a little and also check for sturdiness of the chassis around the hinges of the screen.
As for the price - it is very expensive, especially for a student!
