Advantages: Good speed, good memory, very portable, great price.
Disadvantages: Processor could be better.

...This Acer Extensa 5220 laptop is ideal for anyone on a budget. However don't be fooled by the low price, this laptop still has power. The Intel Celeron processor is more than powerful enough for any home or student. Including a good sized memory (80GB), Windows Vista Home Basic and a DVD rewriter this laptop is excellent value for money. The 15'4 screen allows for excellent viewing for DVDs and gaming, but does not mean the laptop is heavy and could be easily portable to use all over home/school/college/university. Overall i believe this laptop is excellent value for students who are not looking to spend alot of money, but still want a good quality laptop which will allow them to complete most tasks....

Advantages: No inbuilt bluetooth adapter
Disadvantages: Acer Extensa 5210, DDR2 512MB, 80GB HHD, 1.6ghz Celeron processor, WLAN, DVD writer:

...Acer Extensa 5210, DDR2 512MB, 80GB HHD, 1.6ghz Celeron processor, WLAN, DVD writer: My laptop came with a Windows Vista basic installation. (For those who would like to instal Windows XP your warrant may fly through the window. I needed to get XP SATA drivers on floppy to install XP...and also changed the bios version (refer to instruction on acer website). Anyone purchasing it will notice that it has a blue tooth adapter sliding switch on the front face, only that I did not realise at first glance that there was actually no bluetooth adapter inside. One has to buy an external bluetooth adapter to use with this laptop...but the laptop has bluetooth capability...only no internal BT adapter. Overall perforemance: good... Read review

Advantages: great spec, better price.
Disadvantages: could look a little better

...This laptop is the Acer Extensa 5620-1A2G12Mi. The extensa is a new model from acer and although they have been working on it for over a year now it wasn’t until a few months ago that these laptops went on sale. I still don’t think that it’s a brand of acer laptops that most people will be familiar with yet however I think it will grow and they will get better and more and more people will buy them just like what happened with the travel mate and the aspires. Its basically a follow up from the Acer aspire however the aspires were made mainly to keep at home and for a laptop to use around the house. These new extensa models though are not only made or that but also incorporate the design specification of the older travel mate models so that they are also quite portable so really it gives you the opportunity to use your...

Advantages: lots of uses

...This laptop is from the leading laptop manufacturer at the moment which is Acer. They have only recently in the past few years become better known for their laptops and desktops and because of their good customer service great laptops and all at a cheap price they are now at selling other companies like dell and Sony at laptops. This one is the Acer Extensa 5620-1A1G12Mi. The Acer extensa is a really new model of laptop from Acer and there have already been quite a few introduced by Acer in the past month. They have been working on this new type of laptop for quite a while now and there will be a lot more laptops to come out of the extensa model. Its basically a follow up from the Acer aspire however the aspires were made mainly to keep at home and for a laptop to use around the house. These new extensa models though are not only made...

Advantages: Dependable, cheap, exceed expectations!
Disadvantages: Not applicable.

... Ace laptops by Acer, I have got an acer aspire 5315 laptop with an intel celeron processor, 64MB graphics, 512MB RAM, 15.4'' screen, 80GB hdd, built in wireless and a dvd super multi re-writer drive. It is very well designed when it comes to style with its acer pebble design and it is very dependable. I am very pleased with my laptop and what makes this all way better in my opinion is the price that you can buy acer laptops at. My laptop for example only costs around £300 in the shops and still is good enough to withstand all the stuff i do on it ranging from browsing the web to programming software in visual basic or visual c++ and even has proved itself well capable of playing games well which many computer gamers would never expect of a computer with only 64mb graphics and a proccessor that is not dual or quad as you can now...

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 right of the keyboard are too sensitive and i often end up touching them and opening the program by mistake. the Acer is fitted with superfast wireless with the inclusion of 802.11n. It also has a card reader and a camera. The laptop is great, lots of features, Acer have really pushed the boat out on this. A lot of people have been critical of the styling however I find it quite refreshing.... Read review

Advantages: Cheap, Easy to use, Does every neccisary
Disadvantages: Heavy

...I bought this laptop 2 years ago and I think that if your looking for a standerd laptop for college or work or even personal use it is a very good buy. it is good value for money and can do alot of the things your much more costly computer can do. It can handle wireless and broadband. It can take a CD-Rom and wright Cds, It also has an intel centrino Duo processor which means that no matter how many progams you are running it should not slow down. Wether that is completly true i am not sure but it is certainly quicker than other laptops I have used. It is resonably heavy but not so heavy that it is uncomfertable. If i was to recomend a cheaper computer to anybody I would definatly consider looking at the Acer Aspire 1350. Thanks... Read review

Advantages: Just like the make its Ace, good for first time laptop buyers
Disadvantages: for advanced users they will want just that much more

...Acer have come a long way and you can tell they have put so much effort in giving the comsumer great products. This is shown in their technology. The Acer Aspire 3661 wlmi is a great laptop for first time users and at a fantastic price is more than value for money. I brought this computer for the wife who as little PC experience and wow how quickly she has progressed using this laptop. I have taken full advantage of the built in WIFI so the Aspire is taken everywhere around the household. It runs at about 1.5ghz which sounds a little slow but dont let that fool you, built in PCI Express makes it run 4 times faster than traditonal PCI. The Acer Arcade (softwhere) multimedia suite is fun to use and very easy. it caters for all your needs like photo's and playing you dvds. So many more features but i will leave you all to experiance... Read review
