Advantages: Very fast, reliable, does the job it's made for
Disadvantages: Outer casing on the TFT panel could be stronger.

...somewhat washed out appearance. The HP display in contrast remains nice and bright and produces a very sharp image. A big benefit I have noticed with the display compared to my old laptop is the significant reduction in eye strain incurred over a long period of time. To complement the excellent display, the laptop is equipped with an NVIDIA Quadro FX 1500M graphics card. This particularly come into its own when using graphics suites especially 3D ...
...card has its own on-board 512Mb memory. I do have one criticism with the display in that the outer casing on the TFT panel does not offer as much protection as it should. It requires very little force to the exterior lid to be able to see pressure points appearing on the screen. In my opinion the laptop lid should have been made from a more rigid or strengthened material to offer a better degree of protection, especially as these TFT panels cost ... Read review

The only problems I've had are that there are no Firewire ports, which is annoying, and the touch buttons, which include pause, next, previous etc, are not compatible with iTunes.

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.

Advantages: Well-rounded laptop with very good functionality, easy to use
Disadvantages: Not future-proof, but what is?!

This does call on the system memory, however, and typically running windows vista will result in the system using almost half its RAM just idling... However, having purchased a similar travelmate, ...
...transported, the battery life in 'high performance' mode is short and the other power modes are less useful. I have experienced issues from new with the battery connection, and the seller - Kikatek, were very unhelpful. As well as not having a phone line at all - communication must take place by email - they were very unwilling to accept that the model had any fault at all... The laptop is a solid buy, just not from Kikatek! ... Read review
