Advantages: Brilliant Price Disadvantages: Slow with multiple programs running
I have always been a big acer fan; they make some brilliant machines at very low-end market prices.

A bright 15.4 inch screen, huge hard disk, and seemingly unlimited levels of memory make this a great home laptop, this to me seems where it is best suited rather than as a business notebook. Its reasonable if not good price make this centrino laptop a very good choice.
