I bought this laptop having read the reviews and in full knowledge of how slow it was with one gig of RAM. I bought the laptop with the intention of wiping out vista and putting on Linux… which worked perfectly and the computer was incredibly fast. Integrated perfectly into my wireless network.

This is my third Acer laptop and i am totally disappointed!!! Do not buy this model!!. The sound is very low and i only got it to a semi bearable level after weeks of searching threads to fox. The touchpad goes beserk as another user reported and no matter what setting i try to adjust, it cannot be fixed. I ended up using a mouse which works fine. They should also never ship this laptop with only one gig of ram with vista as the system barely works..unless you only look at your desktop screen..the minute you open any programs it slows to a crawl. I did load up windows xp on it and it worked like a charm though. Overall the low price did not make up for all the problems i have had with this laptop…if anyone wants to buy it off me let me know ha ha ha, because i am in the search for a new one!!!

I am THRILLED with this laptop! I got it on sale at $599.00 and then added 4 gig in memory (also purchased from TigerDirect) and was able to upgrade it easily. I did have to search the web and get a little help on removing the cover to the memory (the ”trick” is to ”peel” it back stating from the left side, and slowly free the tabs.) Once installed, it when perfectly to step through the setup. The wireless found my router (and all the neighbors… so it has quite a range!) Once on my net, everything worked well… I had no sound issues that others had reported in the reviews. And, one thing that blew me away was the quality of the webcam picture… WOW! I was not expecting that… even with the 2 megapixel resolution! One other thing I found searching on-line… some reported mouse issues with the touchpad… mine doesn’t have a problem, but here’s what one guy said in a forum: ”…go into tapping, mouse pad on touch pad, check the box tapping off when typing, works well n

I just returned this same one i had bought it from another company. the touch pad was messed up and it lagged constantly. i returned it and decided to wait and shop here when i find something on sale after i save the money to get what i really want. This is not bad though for someone on a budget with a little know how. Acer is also easy to upgrade unlike some laptops. it is so easy to do memory on this one it could be done by anyone with enough attention span to read directions on line. As said though with either a change to XP or a upgrade of memory it would be a nice system well had the touch pad not been borked anyway

To anyone who complained about this laptop, remember you get what you pay for. With that being said, pay the extra $80 and get 4Gb of RAM. Running 4gb with a 64bit OS…and figuratively speaking…I feel like I should strap it down to keep it from taking off. Can not comment on the DVD sound issue…I do not use it to watch DVDs but everything else sounds great.
