Advantages: Well-presented, feature-packed laptop
Disadvantages: A touch slow for modern gaming

The Acer Travelmate series come generally very well-equipped to be competent laptop computers for the modern age, and the 7520 is no exception. Using the same Turion 64x2 that is quite standard in its Travelmate range, the 7520 is quick to boot; the 2GB of RAM is quite sufficient for multimedia applications such as watching DVDs - well provided for by a very able DVD drive and a very nicely presented, clear screen. As well as this, the product is ...
...for long periods, with a great touchpad. However, the screen is quite easily scratched and the battery life is really rather poor - typically you can expect approximately 80 mins on 'high performance', or longer on the more frugal but less useful 'balanced' and 'power saver' options. A great value laptop, and a very good buy ... Read review

Advantages: HDMI Port, Quite, Cheap for 17" Laptop
Disadvantages: 2GB RAM, and HD-DVD Drive

...HD-DVD drive built in because Toshiba was a company responsible for creating these disks, but they did not take off and a Blu-Ray drive would have been a better option. But it still works in all the normal ways that a DVD-ROM driver would and plays all DVDs and CDs. There is a dual core processor located inside which helps to run the Vista operating system, but at times it is very slow. This is generally the case when there are multiple windows open. ...
...and quickly e.g. opening and using Microsoft Word, Excel, etc. The overall design of the laptop I would say is very good. With the addition of Harman/Lardon speakers it means that it has excellent sound quality when playing music, videos, etc. It is also helped with neatly placed media controls at the top of the laptop. It is a very good laptop for the price, but the only thing that is letting it down is the amount of RAM, but this is upgradable, ... Read review

Advantages: its speed and performance
Disadvantages: rubbish webcam

...a very new one from acer and is being used in more and more of their laptops because of its popularity with customers. It does have split opinions however, some love it and some people really cant stand the look of it. I however think its great, its black and cream colour, with a lovely glossy lid looks cool and very neat and tidy. Also what I like about this Is its clearly a design that acer has come up with and kept, and it clearly represents their ...
...the same as others and you cant tell what brand they are, this however, much like the look of apples imacs you can tell they belong to which company. The installed ram on this laptop is great, it has a massive 2gb which is the main reason this laptop runs so fast, also its intel core 2 duo T7300 which is one of the newest processors makes this laptop run so fast. And if the 2 gb isn't enough for you (although I cant see this amount ever not being ... Read review

Advantages: Fast Performance, Good looks, Great Display, A laptop that can be shown off!
Disadvantages: Heavy, Mediocre Battery Life, High Price Tag

This system is excellent for advanced computer users, who require high performance. I was amazed with the build quality of this machine. The one thing I found striking was the LCD display which is very crisp and ultra-bright. Perhaps one of the best I have seen. This however contributes to poor battery life. Under heavy tasks this system is lucky if it attains 1 hr of battery life which is shocking for users who take the system away from AC power ...
...The system is quite heavy and is not very portable making this a desktop replacement system and I would not recommend it for users who require portability. The keyboard is excellent and can be used for prolonged periods comfortably. The most disapointing feature of this laptop is its stupid doors at the side of the system to gain access to its ports this is a pain! Overall this is a system that is far superior to other systems in terms of build ... Read review
