This was my first laptop...and I have to say that overall I've been happy with it...or at least I was until a few months ago. The screen is pretty big and very clear and it plays all my films and everything fine and the wireless never fails.
Here's the problems...
There is nowhere near enough memory on this laptop, I have the 1gb 80gb model and I can't play any games on it without them freezing or crashing and I don't have enough memory for all my music etc.
It also takes and AGE to load up, although it didn't do when I first got it. Another annoying thing...half the time the volume won't change, it started doing this about 2 or 3 months ago...from turning it on the buttons and on screen changer often don't work for about 20 minutes and sometimes not at all.
The battery is now totally knackered, if I'm not really doing anything with it I can get it to last for about an hour and a half...with films playing I need to have it plugged in almost all the time.
Oh and it's not easy to lug around with me because it's so heavy.

This is honestly a good solid laptop for home use but if you do decide to get it I recommend getting an external hard drive for music and pictures and don't use it for gaming.

    acer are good at what they do, but my experience of them, is that they are basic computers. If they were cars, they would a a Fiesta, but the purchasers expect a BMW!!
