    Good Points: Good size and quality screenReally fastGood graphics card and processor


    Bad Points: Battery lifeThe keyboard is a nightmare and mouse are a nightmare for me!


    General comments: Acer TravelMate 5520 is a good laptop at the cheaper end of the market, the screen is great and it comes with a Vista, a good graphics card (Nvida GEForce 7000M) and a quality Turion 64x2 processor.

    Unfortunately it's completely let down by the keyboard and mouse which are just FAR to spongy and sensitive and makes writing e-mails or word processing the most frustrating experience you will EVER experience, the cursor will constantly disappear and then reappear in the wrong place either a few lines away from where it's supposed to be or in the middle of a previous word miles away - it's an absolute nightmare, you will find yourself constantly checking what you're doing just to make sure what you've written actually makes sense! and makes what could have been a 10/10 machine just a 4/10

    Overall, a nice computer, very sturdy, i have dropped it several times! The keys came off once but go back on very easy! If anything happens all you have to do is ctrl+alt+del and it starts to work like new! Worth the money!

    This Acer 5520 came with 4GB memory and it's stabile with MS Vista! Only one crash in last month and that was with non Vista supported DVD software.

    It's a good laptop, I wish can have longer extra warranty, not regional but international.
    basically, for the price £520, it is a nice and worthwhile notebook, quite like it, runs 3d game smoothly.

    The Acer TravelMate 5520 is the only laptop I could find with all the features I needed/wanted at a very reasonable price (£529). Every other laptop (for the same price or more in some cases) was always missing something.

    It has a dual core 1.9 GHz processor, 2 Gig of RAM, 4 USB ports, DVI port, Webcam, 160 Gig hard drive, Blue tooth 2.0, 15.4 inch screen, wireless, independent ATI graphics card, Firewire, 5 in 1 card reader and a multi layer DVD rewriter just to name the important part ...
