    5 Stars My new acer 02/05/2007
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages graphics and cheap at the price

    Disadvantages Disadvantages memory upgrade

    I have recently purchased this laptop with vista preinstalled. For a laptop of this size it is not heavy . There is a built-in camera at the top of the machine but personnally I have not used this. The 17" screen is great to work with , it is very clear and the colours come over vividly. The pixel resolution can go upto 1440 x 900 and supports multi window viewing using acer gridvista. For external displays it has svideo (tv) and VGA port. It also has modem ethernet ports. although it is also wireless. I have had no problems connecting to the internet and can surf very quickly. It has a 5in1 ... more

    5 Stars acer 9301 18/12/2006
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Built in camera and wifi enabled

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Not the lightest laptop available

    I recently purchased the acer aspire 9301 and so far i have been very impressed with my shiny new gadget. I picked out this model as after trying other ones that were available including the more expensive sony viao i decided that by buying the viao i wouldnt be gaining anything just wasting money on a fashion accesory. The Acer offers everything that you could possibly want and more and comes with a much more modest price tag. BASIC DESCRIPTION The 9301 certainly looks the part with its sleek silver and black exterior shell, 17 inch crysral brite tft display screen and a fabulous built in ... more

    4 Stars Great Widescreen Laptop 08/06/2008
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Brilliant Widescreen Display. Excellent Acer "Empowering Technology" program.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Overheats. Expensive to upgrade Memory.

    I bought this Acer laptop for £500 around a year ago now and so far it has served me well. When I originally took this laptop out of the box, my immediate thought was how light it was for its size. The set-up was quick and easy and was simple to use with the number pad being added onto the side of the standard laptop keyboard, making full use of the extra space the 17" widescreen display gives. However the more I use this laptop and the hard drives fill up, the longer the load time for windows. I have recently enquired about a memory upgrade for this laptop to help solve this problem and have ... more

    1 Star Quick review of Acer Aspire 9301WSMi - Turion 64 X2 TL-52 1.6 GHz - 17" TFT by nigelhill 03/10/2007
    For the last year I have been very happy with my Acer Aspire 3100, the reason behind buying the Acer Aspire 9301. In fact I bought two. 6 hours after turning on the first one, the battery meter told me "Battery plugged in, not charging" I decided just to remove it for now and worry about it later. 6 hours after that my speakers packed in. So I used headphones - nope nothing, it was the sound card. Took the machine back, started using the other one. Same issues, same time periods. Unbelievable. This one's going back to the manufacturer, and ... more

    5 Stars Acer Aspire 9301AWSMI - AMD Turion 26/12/2006
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Massive HD screen with Crystalbrite Technology

    Disadvantages Disadvantages The CPU fan vent is on the right so using a USB mouse can get abit "hot"

    At first i was not sure if i should get the AMDX2 core for it and pay the extra £300ish. I finally decided it would be better to buy the single core and if need be, buy a AMDX2 off ebuyer or elsewhere. Its turns out that the single core is way to under rated as it is very fast and can handle multitask quite well. The 17" screen is something special for laptops and i just could not resist it. Acers Crystalbrite technology give HD movies that little extra shine. I bought mine in the first week of december 2006 and it had 1GB DDR2 RAM and was upgraded to a vista express pass. When i got it last ... more
