Acer laptops
 

I want to grab a cheap laptop for the wife, just for basic html, blog postings and surfing, nothing too heavy.

Been looking at the ACER ASP9300 Series cause it's got a 17 inch screen, any one got one?
Happy with it, can it run all day without heat probs. etc.

I use one every day. Its a good cheap workhorse. Had it for a year with no probs.

Recommended.

Great, thx for the info, I'll order it this afternoon for her.

Acer screens looks not so good. Sony x-black is fantastic

Never works on Acer but I think they are good laptops!

All our Laptops last year been Acer..... everyone loves them

im typing on an acer laptop right now

it rocks! :thumbsup

had it for more than a year now and not any problems

No worries. Or you could go for one of these:

disclaimer: Don't!!!

acers are fine, too bad they a have a *** design

why not opt for a dell. they seem cheap, but seem to last for years.

I use a HP Pavilion dv9000, great laptop

hehe nice name

Sony's are twice the cost, she doesn't do any design work, so for surfing should be o.k



It's for the wife, I don't care what it looks like. hehe.
If she wants something pretty she can buy it herself.


There's a deal on the Acer ones, and a dell with a 17 inch screen is $300 more


The wife used to work for HP customer support.
The horror stories I got fom there put me off HP for life.

thx for the info, seems good no bad replys sofar.

Light work.. it is like a Kia...

It isn't as reliable as a Toyota but then you don't expect to drop it do you?

I bought an Acer Aspire with Vista a few months back. Works quiet well for daily usage and/or as a travel notebook.

But Sony vaio laptop is not the best to work at.... Acer is much better.

I`m not sure if Acer is the best laptop solution,what about other brands,like HP ?

I've had mine for 8 months and a few months back the motherboard died, but Acer fixed it ASAP and gave me a loaner with no hassle.

All this occured in the Philippines and I bought mine in the states.

Other than that I love mine.

personally i would stay away. my boss bought 2 of them and both (little more than "average" use) died within 3 months.

I would go with a dell, they seem to have a better line of laptops and their warranty is really good

Been a happy acer owner for 4 years.

My last one had a 3 year warranty and they replaced everything inside it for free when it melted just before the warranty expired.

I bought an Acer Ferrari 1000. I'm more than impressed with it but it didn't
come too cheap. It's the top of the range Acer model at the moment.

my acer rocks.. wasnt too cheap either.. but worth every $ :)

hmm nice to know. i used to have a bad opinion about Acer

get a lenovo,almost same price,better quality

It's only for the wife, I got it last Friday,
she hasn't broken it yet.. hehe.
