Advantages: Great sound, well designed

Disadvantages: Too much preinstalled useless software

My old laptop died and I needed a new one. I searched through Amazon and the usual online shops and decided on this one.

The 2 gig RAM is enough for you to run several large aps at once, such as media player,dreamweaver, msn, IE all at the same time.

The webcam is brilliant, my friends can see me on skype full screen almost perfectly!!

The 160GB storage comes with only about 130GB for you to use, the rest is used for hibernation storage and if you wish to reformat.

Although the computer does run very smoothly, I have on a couple of occasions found all the pre installed Acer products to be very irritating, perhaps for the novice they will be useful, but to me they just take up extra memory and slow the computer down. It comes installed with norton(trial), which is a pain to remove, and also it comes with a microsoft word(trial) installed, both of which i uninstalled asap, as there are much better alternatives available for free (try open office).

The speakers on this laptop are incredible for a laptop, the sound is brilliant compaired to any laptop I have heard before.

The battery to me, (i run alot, usually running wifi,msn,paltalk,IE and music) seems average (around 1.5-2 hours on low brightness)

Don't get me wrong, the computer is fairly good, I am just wanting to make clear the worst things about it.

I bought it a year ago and I paid £450, which seems alot, but at the time it was a good deal. I would say it is great for the average person. And you won't be dissapointed with the overall product.

Summary: Good for every average user
