Acer Aspire 5532-6C3G32Mn

Acer Aspire 5532 I never thought I would end up owning a laptop. I've never really liked them, for one I can't stand that touch pad which you use in place of a mouse, and don't start me started on the keyboard! For various reasons though I have ended up with a laptop, and it's my very first laptop. I took my time in deciding, making sure I was getting good spec for my money, and I settled on this Acer Aspire 5532 as it seemed like good value for money. The Acer Aspire 5532 has a 15.6 HD inch screen and comes with pretty good spec for the price as it features an AMD Athlon 64 X2 dual-core ... more

One of my first jobs was in a computer store back in the mid-nineties. Back then laptops were reserved for those who needed to travel and not really a home user product. Needless to say you wouldn't get any change out of £1000, usually you'd need to pay a lot more than that!

The Aspire wasn't my first choice of laptop, however I had a financial restriction and I needed a computer fast. When I got it I was impressed by its speed and ease of use. It copes well with multi tasking and does everything I want it to do. However I do have some doubts as to how well it would cope with more advanced games, if thats your thing your probably better with a more expensive machine.

The speakers are quiet, which is probably a good ... more
