Alright, I've been looking for laptops for a while now, and I think I've come across a pretty good deal. Here's a link to the laptop;

I don't really plan on gaming on it, really more for internet and basic school use. I'm also going to max it out at 4gigs of ram as soon as I buy it. Acer has seem to be making some pretty good quality laptops lately, so I'm just wondering if that image of quality is actually true. So if anyone has any opinions or advice please let me know.

**I need something around $650 or less.

ask Hakk79 about which laptops to avoid :p

just looked at his post. apparently avoid averatec. i didn't even know averatec even existed until looking at that post XD

anyone have thoughts on acer though?

Acers are pretty good, if I were picking a PC laptop, I'd get an Acer or a Dell.

build your own:cool:
