replace that old desktop

Advantages: fast
Disadvantages: rubbish webcam

Acer are now the biggest selling laptop company in England and have even over taken the previous well known laptop manufacturer Dell for its laptop sales. The main reason for this is simply because acer knows what the public need, they make great laptops designed for the publics needs but best of all they cater for everyone’s costs. =you just simply cant get a dell with anywhere near as good specification as an acer for the same price, or ...
...any of acers laptops but acer is cheaper for good quality too which make them a fantastic computing company. The design of this laptop is one that some people hate and some people love, I quite like it, its called acers gemstone in that it kind of looks gem shaped as its curved and its also a nice white shape like a gem. Its cream/white in colour with a nice white glossy shell which makes it look ultra modern when the lids closed. Its base is black ...

Acer aspire 5920

Advantages: classy design, 250GB hard drive, core 2 duo processor, acer technology
Disadvantages: large design

...i settled comfortably with the acer aspire, as it has many advantages compared to other laptops with similar specifications. For my course i need a lot of memory, and so the 250GB hardrive was a big attraction for me. The laptop in fact has two separate drives each with over 100GB of disk space. This allows you to separate your data appropriately, for example i keep all of my media such as music on pictures on the D drive while i install my programmes ...
...a button to start an acer media programme that allows you to burn cd's and make dvd's etc. The properties of the buttons can be altered to set the sensitivity, so that you dont accidentally press them just by brushing over them. This works quite effectively, however with mine set to low sensitivity i still sometimes find that i unintentionally open the cd/dvd maker which can sometimes be quite irritating. The laptop has virtual dolby built in, and ...

I am so impressed with Acers 5920

Advantages: Latest technology and very cool aesthetics makes me want to eat this baby.
Disadvantages: Not everything is perfect. The Aspire 5920 comes as close as I have seen

...but after playing with a Acer 5920 in a shop the other day, I have for the first time in my life fallen in love with a bit of hardware! I am now saving like mad and intend to get one in the next few weeks. And to those pundits in the mags slagging of its styling, clean your specs and see some daylight, this thing is beauty incarnate. I can honestly say after trying this machine I now sneer at everything else. Wow, what an impact. I want one. I ...
...video work. (15.4in Acer CrystalBrite TFT LCD) "Clear and bright screen" Some have complained about screen glare from its shiny surface, but without the screen cover that creates this, sticky little fingers would damage the delicate LCD pixels, next time you are in a P.C. shop, try pressing gently on the uncovered screen and see how easily they get displaced. (256MB nVidia GeForce 8600M) At last a DX10 graphics card, may not appear that important ...

Can't go wrong for under £500!

Advantages: Cheap, looks great, quick, robust
Disadvantages: sound a little quiet, no bluetooth on some models

...then I can recommend the Acer Gemstone 5920. With 2GB of memory and a healthy speed Core Duo processor it provides more than enough power to cope easily with the usual day to day tasks, despite having the unenviable task of running Windows Vista! ;-) The "CrystalBrite" TFT widescreen monitor gives a perfect picture whether you're wasting your evenings on Facebook/Bebo/MySpace, or watching a DVD. The laptop can also boast surround sound speakers, ...
...side, a little more volume would've been good in certain situations but can't grumble too much as the quality of the sound it does produce is very good. The only gripe I have with the model I purchased was that it doesn't have integrated Bluetooth, which would've been handy at times. That being said the card reader has made up for most of these situations. To conclude, i've had the laptop for a few months now and it's running for a good 10-12 hours ...

UGLY!! BUT GREAT

Advantages: New Technologys, Graphics Card, Intel Santo Rossa, Harddrive
Disadvantages: Looks and Weight

...a few games on the Acer and I was pleasantly suprised. Although the speed wasnt a fast as on really high end machines the graphics speed was acceptable and would run most games without problems. MEDIA The Acer is a media PC and it has a great screen, although it is a little to glossy. The screen is 15.4Inches standard for a laptop of this caliber. The sound quality is very high due to the fact Acer included Dolby Surround in this laptop. Something ...
...Like mentioned earlier the Acer is fitted with superfast wireless with the inclusion of 802.11n. It also has bluetooth, a card reader and a camera. CONCLUSION Although really ugly and not too portable the Acer 5920 has some great features for a good price. I would probably reccommend this PC as it has some great media applications and is designed with everything in mind. Ryan Morgan ...

Advantages: Its weight and speed
Disadvantages: The sensitivity of the mouse pad

Acer Aspire 5920G

Advantages: case design that is stylish, fast processor
Disadvantages: The 5920G does not have its own number pad to other desktop replacement

...(as of July 24, 2007) Acer Aspire 5920G is designed for work and entertainment. It bears Acer's tritone "gemstone" case design that is stylish, without overly ornate. The screen is prone to some glare and battery life is so-so, but the machine can be used with most types of applications. Powered by a 2-GHz Core 2 Duo T7300 processor and configured with 2 GB of DDR2-667 SDRAM, the 5920G notched a very good World Bench 6 Beta 2-Score of 77 - a few ...
...a button to launch the Acer Arcade interface allowing direct access to HD-DVD movie and music playback, without requiring you to start with Windows. Both sounded great on this laptop, the subwoofer stereo speaker support. The 'e' button - a blue sparkly triangular keyboard trim that looks like a faux gemstone - is sound equalizer options such as pop, rock, classical and easy to reach. This laptop also a 1.3MP Webcam. Unfortunately, the option to ...

Acer 5920 Gemstone

Advantages: Price / Performance
Disadvantages: Dark Screen, HDDVD drive, poor battery life

Purchased through 'Amazon Warehouse' was described as 'slight cosmetic blemishes' when recieved there was nothing of the sort. Laptop was in pristine condition. Excellent value for money, but make sure that the model you purchase has the GeForce graphics chipset to make it more usuable in a modern gaming context. One of the USB connecters now seems to be faulty, however as there is 2 others this is not much of an issue. Comes with HDDVD drive which ...

Acer 5920

Advantages: Fast, Durable, Unique
Disadvantages: Overly sensitive and emits a high pitched noise

...it can be on other acer models. You can read about the advantages of this laptop all over the net and i would agree - it is a fast capable laptop. However there are some negatives, namely: 1. if you close the lid or leave it in hibernation for too long with the lid closed, it makes an incredibly annoying high pitched continuous beep until you raise the lid. Sometimes i have had to restart it to stop the noise. 2. the microphone in the lid is incredibly ...
...laptop moved the laptop begins to emit that awful noise again. 3. the touch sensitive media buttons on the right of the keyboard are too sensitive and i often end up touching them and opening the program by mistake. 4. i bought this laptop from laptops direct and it only comes with trial versions of windows office and Norton anti-virus. Most people will already know this, but just thought I would point out. 5. After about 45 minutes the base of ...

Ugly but good

Advantages: Speed
Disadvantages: Ugly, bluky and roller volume control

I I bought this laptop for my university. Even though this laptop is ugly but it is good buy for that amount of money. The design of this product is awful, all plastic. I used to get embraced when I used to takeout this laptop out in the university library. If it is left on the table switched off, it looks like a dummy display model. It also is too bulky and used to take most of the space in my back pack. But the design makes it a durable laptop. ...
...performance of this laptop. It is loaded with all the new gadgets which you can get in expensive brands like Sony, Toshiba etc. The processor speed is amazing and the 2 GB RAM. I was able to install very large programs like acrobat professional on this laptop easily. Amazing speed. Graphics are amazing for this laptop. The graphics are sharp and bright. I guess better then Sony as well. Before I used to get those funny messages on my PC regarding ...

Aspire 5920 - So good the little things annoy you!

Advantages: Very fast, looks nice, loads of extra software and hardware features, fast network adapter
Disadvantages: Graphics card, no num pad when there's room. Bad touch pad. That's about it.

...always use a mouse anyway. Acer gives you plenty of useless software for you to enjoy as well which is always a good thing. Quite stylish (once you get past the mushroom colour which I sadly quite like anyway!). I reckon it's pretty durable as well. I let the holographic back on mine get a bit scratched. Not bad battery life. Only about an hour at high performance gaming but over 3 hours on battery saver doing word processing. I've seen worse. Nice ...
...pretty good. I like this speedy laptop and it is just so good that I am getting annoyed at those petty things like no num pad and a rubbish graphics card! I think that says something about it. Nice one Acer. Sensible, functional notebooks! As with all laptops clear up all that background junk that modern computers give you to really do this thing justice! Oh and this was indeed fantastic value when I bought it six months ago. Natrually it will ...

Acer Aspire 5920G Laptop

Advantages: Great value for money, NVIDIA GeForce graphics, built-in webcam and mic
Disadvantages: Heavy, not the most robust laptop

Generally a very good laptop offering superb value for money. Is able to cope with numerous tasks well without slowing or freezing. The NVIDIA GeForce Graphics card makes the laptop a great value gaming laptop. Includes a built-in webcam and microphone, great for chatting online with friends. However, I have had a problem with a flickering screen when opened at certain angles, and the laptop is heavy, so it probably isn't the most practical or ...

Acer Aspire 5920. A real Gemstone

Advantages: Cool with style, technology, user friendly with easy understanding
Disadvantages: Sensitive touch buttons, overweight,

I purchased my Acer Aspire 5920G from Comet. So much for cutting prices. The laptop itself is cool, it's fairly fast, easy to use and really portable. The 15.4" inch screen is the perfect size. The laptop comes with the useful Acer Empowering software. Highly recommended laptop, the only problems I have had is with the sometimes buggy Vista. The keyboard isn't the best but I haven't had any problems with it. the touch sensitive media buttons on the ...

Acer Aspire 5920 Gemstone Laptop - LX.AKV0X.146

Advantages: Portable, easy to use, low priced, fast
Disadvantages: Slightly reflective screen, sometimes sensitive touchpad buttons, flashing WAN button, not the best keyboard

I purchased my Acer Aspire 5920 laptop from PC World. No problems with the laptop but the service at PC World is appauling so I would not recommend buying the laptop from PC World. They also put the price up for the laptop three days after I purchased the laptop. So much for cutting prices. The laptop itself is brilliant, it's fairly fast, easy to use and really portable. The 15.4" inch screen is the perfect size but it is slightly reflective so ...
