    Advantages Advantages Boot Times, Compability, Webcam, Keyboard, Screen

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Chip may come loose and cause a lot of problems.

    So i was given this laptop free, as it was well near enough on cyber-death's doorstep. It came with no ram, no wireless, no hard drive, the left mouse button was broken and there were horrid scratchings all over (ones that had been done by a sharp object like a knife). Anyway, i was determined to get it working, and i have. Im actually writing this review on that exact laptop. Here are some good points: *Fast Boot Times *Works smoothly with Win XP *Good webcam *Springy full sized keyboard *Decent speakers *Easy to pull apart *Beautiful LCD screen Here are some bad points: *Doesnt seem to be ... more

    5 Stars Quick review of Acer Aspire 5100 by Musaddaq 30/07/2008
    I am Using this Laptop from last 2 year. it never created any problem for me. Battery timing is approximately 90 minutes. Web cam quality is very nice. I installed windows Vista 64bit on it and its performance was excellent. I found one problem in it some time its fans create noise when you start it but after some time it become calm. Some time it become overheated but never restarted. I will recommend every one to purchase this Laptop.

    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages Good screen size

    Disadvantages Disadvantages poor battery power

    I have found this laptop to be very useful for school work as it is very fast and has a large memory. Despite this the battery power is very unpredictable and is not what it says on the box. my also recent problem is the dvd drive failing to work. I have tried to find a solution online and have found many other people with same problem. further more the laptop despite its problems has a large screen and is very easy to navigate. The laptop is also for people who need to do work or people that just want to play game on it. the laptop appearance is not stylish but it does not look rubbish. the ... more

    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages easy to use, good webcam, doesnt make much of noise

    Disadvantages Disadvantages battery go off after a short time and freeze more then other I have used.

    I have used this laptop for 1 year and maybe I have used it too often since I dont have another computer so I am having a little problem with the laptop, like the battery go off really fast if it's not adapted and maybe within 2 min will it turn off other then that I think it's a good laptop to use and it's not too heavy thats 3 kg. I dont like to bring it with me everywhere because it's still heavy to carry it around to school or work. It's Vista Iam using with this and was really excited at first because it was new and heard about the new function they have, although it was not so good as I ... more
