Advantages: cheap, great spec Disadvantages: could have better processor
..., looking at pictures and just general web browsing even better than before as it makes the images ob your screen brighter, sharper and just more realistic.
I as was mentioning earlier, the reason why acer are outselling other brands at the moment is simply because there cheaper. this laptop is really cheap for a 2 gb of ram laptop and costs only £450, and if bought online you’ll no doubt be able to get it for less and possibly £400. that’s £400 for a 2 gb of ram laptop that also has 120 gb of hard drive, and that’s the reason why acers such a good company as this spec is just something you could never get in dell laptops.
Altogether this is a fantastic laptop, its even has lots of extra features like the 5 in 1 built in memory card reader which can read SD Memory Card, Memory Stick, Memory Stick PRO, MultiMediaCard, x...

Advantages: Fast and quiet Disadvantages: Lack of instructions
...Can you possibly fill in 80 GB worth of data on your computer?
I can - all those MP3s, applications and games meant that upgrading from an exisiting 10 GBdrive was essential.
Costing around £80, the Deskstar 120GXP did not come with any fixtures or fitting, leads or indeed, instructions.
If you are au fait with PC upgrades, all very well, if not you may want someone who is to install it for you.
After 'cloning' the data from my 10 GBdrive to the 80 GB Deskstar 120GXP the first thing I noticed is how very quiet the drive is - only the flashing red LED on the front of the PC gives it away.
The drive runs at 7,200 RPM so is considerably faster than old 5,400 RPM drives. You certainly notice the difference - Windows loads faster and games and applications too.
Reviews in magazines have questioned the lifespan of this drive...
