Equipped with a fast processor and solid speakers, the $ 1999 (as of July 24, 2007) Acer Aspire 5920G is designed for work and entertainment. It bears Acer's tritone "gemstone" case design that is stylish, without overly ornate. The screen is prone to some glare and battery life is so-so, but the machine can be used with most types of applications.
Powered by a 2-GHz Core 2 Duo T7300 processor and configured with 2 GB of DDR2-667 SDRAM, the 5920G notched a very good World Bench 6 Beta 2-Score of 77 - a few percentage points above the mark by a Dell Inspiron 1720, that the same processor and RAM. The Aspire average frame rate in our graphics tests was 83 frames per second - not close to the average of 100 fps posted by recent gaming notebooks, but capable of good game nonetheless.
The 5920G does not have its own number pad to other desktop replacement, but it offers two types of customizable buttons. Application number start buttons and a Wi-Fi switch on the left side of the keyboard, media controls occupy the right side. The media controls a button to launch the Acer Arcade interface allowing direct access to HD-DVD movie and music playback, without requiring you to start with Windows. Both sounded great on this laptop, the subwoofer stereo speaker support. The 'e' button - a blue sparkly triangular keyboard trim that looks like a faux gemstone - is sound equalizer options such as pop, rock, classical and easy to reach. This laptop also a 1.3MP Webcam. Unfortunately, the option to make an integrated TV tuner for the 5920G is available only in Europe and Asia.
The Acer Aspire 5920G felt comfortable to use. The mouse buttons are slightly stiff, but the 4 way scroll button for moving pages in any direction is nice. Overall its keyboard is large, especially for linking fans. Although the super-glossy Acer Crystal Brite screen reflects fluorescent office lights unless you tilt it just right, it is bright and easy to read differently. The Windows Vista Ultimate home notebook lacks bundled applications, but it has the power and style to spare. Short-list them, if you on the strip for a trendy home desktop replacement.
