Compared to my old 333Hz desktop, this machine goes like the wind! In my opinion it is a fast, reliable and ultimately portable computer with all the features you would expect from a normal desktop PC.

Spec is as follows:-

Mobile AMD Athlon™ XP processor 1400+, 14.1" XGA TFT display, 128MB SDRAM, 20GB HDD, 24x CD-ROM, wired LAN 10/100, 56Kbps modem, Ni-MH battery, Microsoft® Windows® XP Home

The 1.4 GHZ processor makes it fast enough for any home or office applications and it is good at multitasking.
Computer Buyer tested eight notebooks based on applications that a user would normally use on a desktop, such as Word, Excel and CorelDraw. All manufacturers were graded on features, ergonomics, portability and performance but the reviewer commented that "If you want a PC for surfing the net and doing some word processing and other functions, the Aspire is more than able to cope with this". Computer Buyer noted that "the Aspire 1300X manages to pick up a Recommended award just by being such gob-smackingly good value for money".

I have successfully used a USB mouse, printer and cd rewriter from a UBS hub with no problems. The pre-installed windows XP just picks up that a new peripheral has been added and away you go.

There are other Acer Laptops in the range, it all depend on how far your pocket money will go!

Overall a good buy with bags of features and processing power.A+
