Acer Extensa 5220-201G08Mi / Intel Celeron M 550 2.0GHz / 15.4 WXGA / 1GB DDR2 RAM / 80GB HDD / DVD-SM / Vista Home Basic / Laptop / Notebook PC

Pros:
very affordable
Nice to look at
Fast processing speed
Crystalbrite display
Good graphics card

Cons:
None

Wonderful machine, a real value for money as long as you are a homeuser/student or small scale business user who is in the process of setting up his/her own business

I know this comes with Cel processor and there has been a huge debate on how celeron can struggle with Vista, but from experience, using the machine for the last two months, I know for a fact that with the processing speed of 2.0 GHZ and an increased memory of 2 GB you are not going to face any hiccups

Its got a beautiful 15-inch screen and since most of the people still buy things with their eyes it has a design to attract "seduce."

I would normally not recommend Acer laptops as I have used a few in the past and they often tend to pack up when used extensively unlike a Lenovo or a Sony, but this is one of those laptops that even Acer can use to prove their reliability, as originally bought on a recommendation from a friend and since then at least two other collegues have purchased the same machien and no faults
