Laptops > 2 GB Laptops

Advantages: cheap, great spec
Disadvantages: could have better processor

Acer is a company that’s growing stronger and stronger by the day, a few years ago I wouldn’t have even considered buying an acer, but now acer are starting to over take dell in laptop sales and its mostly down to their fair prices, as well as their great build quality. Sure dell might still make better laptops, but acer are more the peoples laptop brand offering lots of variety at affordable prices. This so called gemstone design is ...
...its clearly a design that acer has come up with and kept, and it clearly represents their company. a lot of laptops from other manufacturers just look 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. Only weighing 2.7 kg this is quite good for taking on the move as well. It also has a 2.5 hour battery life, which is pretty good but if you do want ... Read review

Advantages: Big screen, Light
Disadvantages: Motherboard, battery, and processor will fail. Battery life is low, Keys fall off easy, slow.

...star? I have had my Acer Aspire 5103WLMi for a year and 3 months now, within a year of owning my laptop several things had gone wrong. 4 of my keyboard keys had fallen off, 3 more were close to it, the built in mouse is almost broke, my charger died, (Had to buy a £20 replacement.) My battery holds no charge what so ever, (My charger has to be plugged in all the time for my laptop to work.) My processor randomly changes speed and my laptop is slow ... Read review

Advantages: looks, speed
Disadvantages: battery life!!

This review is on the acer aspire 5633WLMi. This is an all round good laptop and even though this has great specifications, you can get it for around £450-£500. When I first came across this laptop I noticed how sleek it really looks, and the picture of it on ciao really doesn't do it any justice. When companies make laptops with only one colour of plastic it somehow really annoys me, however acer have designed this to be black and silver, this ...
...well built it is, and acer have put a lot of effort into it durability. When I first got to use one of these, I noticed how quickly it started up, this is probably due to its great 2 gb of built in ram. This can even be upgraded to a massive 4 gb if needed. This laptop also has a Intel Core 2 Duo T5500 which makes the laptop run really fast. During start up of the laptop, there was quite a bit of fan noise whilst turning on, however you would ...

Advantages: Looks, Simplicity, Works out-of-the-box, battery life, power
Disadvantages: Case feels a little cheap, Screen attracts fingerprints

...Macbook was purchased direct from Apple and took just two days to arrive. And, as promised, it worked straight out of the box. I just pressed power filled out my user details and i was going. The setup hooked me onto my wireless internet and i was away. The first thing that struck me was the size of the thing, it's only slightly thicker than an average sized hardback notepad and weighs just over 2 kg, in other words it's a perfect size. Before the ...
...is very clean and crisp. Apple really has gone above and beyond with this one, it's perfect. The 13,3 inch glossy screen is great for watching movies. Just a note for skeptical readers: the glossy screen rarely (if ever) reflects anything in the background. When it comes to using the Macbook in a brightly lit area or outside there is less reflection than there would be on a Matte display. Battery life on the Macbook. Is better than almost all other ...

Advantages: Cheap, Reliable, Run up to date games.
Disadvantages: Heavy, Slow, Battery

The Toshiba Equium A60, is a cheap, and reliable laptop. It can do the basic commands of oppening Microsoft Office to a harder command of running the most up to date games. The A60 is quite old now, and I was worried at first that it may not be able to run Flight Simulator X. In the end the game works fine. The spec is good aswell, if you have got alot of files then you may need to buy and external hard drvie for extra storage. Then there is the ...
...portable. Also if you have got lots of programs then the laptop may be slow and most of the time the laptop will not be able to run more then three or four major programs. Also the battery is not very good; infact it is rubbish. But as long you have got the charger in the laptop you should be ok and it should not be a problem. Over all its a good "student" laptop, and the price you pay is the price you get! I paid £230 for this laptop, but i'm sure ... Read review
