Summary: I bought this epic fail of a machine with the intention of doing graphics work. But I can't, because there is no position from which the screen shows colors consistenly...
Pros: 4 core Phenom, 1600x900 screen
Cons: Screen viewing angle is about 25 degrees. Surprisingly flimsy plastic construction.
Summary: If not for the small issues, this would be 5 stars. However, these small issues show shoddy craftsmanship.
Pros: Nice and big without being overly heavy. Gets the job done.
Cons: HDMI out audio doesn't work. Mouse pad stops working for a few moments from time to time. I have checked for updates, and found none. They are little things that aren'...
Summary: I would not purchase this again simply due to the screen issue. I'm think I'm done with Acer. Moving on.
Pros: Affordable.
Cons: Plastic case. M-Sata doesn't appear to function (tried with a couple devices). My screen has a dead pixel after a year, and there is a piece of what appears to be blac...
Summary: If you're looking for an all-around laptop, including gaming, casual, 3d apps, or what have you, that will also last a while, this is the laptop for you, but make sure
Pros: Great laptop for the price. Been using it for full on gaming from the get-go. Definitely have to keep a fan under it for gaming but I think that's expected for most la...
Cons: As some have mentioned, no built in bluetooth, gets hot, low quality speakers (but it's a laptop so I didn't expect much). Not sure about customer support as I haven't...

Pros: Fair price. Good performance until it broke.
Cons: Horrible customer service. The laptop harddrive died well within the warranty period. I used another I had and got the laptop up and running. When i went to make the c...
Summary: This is a workhorse. I use it for days on end. The AMD quad-core enables me to run and fully utilize heavy-duty digital audio work-station software (Sibelius 7, Kontakt 4...
Pros: Ultra-great customer service. Although not stated, an unconditional warranty exists for 90 days from purchase. My keyboard stopped working (darn coffee!) and all I had...
Cons: HDMI port has some synch problems with my Planar 27" monitor. (Probably a Win7 driver issue, actually.) If I just used it as aworkstation there would be no problem.
Cons: Today I come home after getting my lunch and turn this laptop on to do my work, and the screen does not turn on. I try rebooting the laptop and still nothing. I though...
Summary: This was purchased as a New Year gift well in advance. The unit was visually examined when delivered and both the box and the unit itself looked great.
Pros: None - arrived with a cracked screen out of the box.
Cons: Arrived with a cracked screen out of the box.
