Customer Rating: Summary: Disappointed Comment: Laptop died within 4 weeks of being bought VERY disappointed.Unable to get warranty.Stay away you have been warned. Customer Rating: Summary: Great laptop - one important tip Comment: This is a nice little laptop with plenty of spunk. Here is my biggest tip - if you plan to burn video DVDs, then please use Maxell DVDs. I tried Verbatim and TDK, neither worked. But Maxell seems to work. I suffered about a month of pain trying to get a cousin's wedding from the DV camera to a DVD - I had no idea that the problem was with the brand of DVD I was trying to burn!
As several others mentioned, I agree that the Acer software which came factory installed slows the machine down and doesn't seem to add much value.
Otherwise - highly recommended.
Customer Rating: Summary: Acer AS4530-6823 14.1 in blue laptop Comment: Love it. Everything they promise and more...the "and more", I haven't quite gotten to yet, not so tech savy.
But all in all it is easy to navigate, boots up quickly and runs quietly. Doesn't heat up as much as my prior computer either. Customer Rating: Summary: neat lil laptop for the price Comment: had the laptop for 6 months now. Its beautiful. simple and does what i need it to do..
bad: it contains vista.
When i first got the laptop, it was shint. and blue.. and pretty.. :)
then i turn it on.. took over 15-20 mins to start up..
vista is a real chore. lots of 3rd party programs built in, that slows the machine down terribly!
but after working on it for a day or two.. removing everything and putting all that i need.. it works great.
even installed ubuntu as a 2nd OS on it.. and it works great! no compatibility issues with it as some others may have complained about on other forums.
so if u havent got lots to spend.. and u need something on the go that reliable. this ACER can do... :)
oh.. and the battery lasts about 2hrs.. with average use.. running videos.. much less.. :) Customer Rating: Summary: gtreat laptop for the price Comment: I got this laptop to replace my old desktop and got to say what a great laptop for the price. It has been 3 months and the computer which I use for hours at a time it does not get hot even when I used it 6+ hours. great laptop
