 AMAZING !! November 1, 2009
Aline C. Malta (Chicago, IL USA)
I bought to give to my dad. It's a gift.
I am very impressed with this performance, it is so fast and make no noise.. It doesn't be very hot what is very good.
And the battery is impressing me yet, 4 hours in power saver...
The camera is very good too and I'm so satisfied with this product !

Two of my customers got these machines after looking both locally and online. They are good, solid desktop replacements, full-featured, including webcam/microphone. The keyboard is a full keyboard, including a separate number pad. The display is good as is the performance. I would recommend this model to anyone interested in a good value for a basic, full-featured notebook computer.

The Bad:
1. You have to make your own recovery cd. Must be a way companies are cutting cost. You will reminded by notification to make the cd.
2. Old Drivers... One of the 1st things I had to do was install new audio and wireless adapter drivers. Go to realtek and atheros websites and download their drivers. I did this because the internet connection was dropping and whenever I played audio and hit any button on the keyboard the audio would skip. Installing the latest drivers corrected these issues.
3. Touch Pad... The touch pad just feels awkward at first. If more than one finger/body part touches the pad I always end up zooming the screen, not being able to highlight correctly, or directing the cursor accurately. And because of the position of the pad my palm seems to always do some undesired action. I had to play around with the Synaptics mouse pad settings to find settings and features that I could live with.
4. The speakers... They are ok speakers at best. Don't be fooled by the Dolby Optimized Surround Sound System that it says it comes with. Once you turn the volume up past a certain level the quality declines greatly and may even make irritating static noise.
5. Bloatware... I spent about a hour removing useless apps. Has a lot of them.
Now for the Good:
1. Powerful Laptop... Dual Core is a must for seamless multi-tasking, audio/video editing, high def movies, etc. Not only do you get that, but it comes with a 64bit operating system with 4GB DDR3 (not DDR2 as listed) so you are utilizing that much more of the laptops power.
2. Free Windows 7 upgrade... This is very important as Windows 7 is better than Vista in every way. Just go to acer's free upgrade website, type in you info, and your done.
3. The screen... The LED crystal display is amazing. It will be hard going back to LCD screens after looking at this one for a few hours. Everything you look at on this screen from the video to the webpages feel like its truly High Def quality. The screen is bright and wide (16:9 Video) with 1366x768 ( normal max 1280x768) resolution. Just wait until you see it in person.
4. Nice features... The inclusion of a hdmi port, internal wireless n card, above average webcam, and internal mic adds that much more value compared to most laptops in the $499.99 price range.
5. The Bad isn't that bad.... None of the bad things that I listed takes away from all the things you will accomplish with the laptop once you get into using it.
Overall, this laptop is superior to others in this price range easily. Dual core, 64bit OS, and 4 GB DDR3 Ram alone is enough for other companies to charge $600+ for this laptop. This laptop really is worth that, but you get it for less.
