...for reproductors and microphone. They were placed in front of laptop what is not so handsome. After few hours of initial testing i revealed a small bug - it is impossible to change the backlight intensity for the display. I tried to run a Linux system so i have to write some hints: The graphics card works well with the newest drivers from nvidia. Wifi card has no oficiall drivers from Intel so i tried ndiswrapper which some people made succesfull, ... Read review

Advantages: Lightweight design, durable and comfortable typing
Disadvantages: Graphics and sound are average at best

I use this laptop at work and it is the most reliable laptop I have used (I used to have a HP NC6000). The battery life is good and the power management feature makes a big difference to the amount of battery life I get. WIth the standard battery I usually get 4 hours. The screen, albeit small, is crisp and clear. The keyboard took me sometime to get used to, as some keys are in different places than I am used to, but the typing is very comfortable. ...
...expecting and this makes a difference when travelling frequently. I have 2GB memory on mine and I would strongly getting as much memory as possible. Graphics and sound are average at best, as I would expect one buys this kind of laptop for the smart features and lightweight design. If you regularly work on the go I would advise getting the longer life battery, as I manage to get 7 hours out of that. What is also more impressive is that I dropped ... Read review

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

When looking for a relatively cheap but well-designed laptop, acer's travelmate series were a particular interest. Suitably powerful for multimedia applications, and generally well-equipped, with an integrated webcam, microphone and a separate graphics card. 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
