I do not care for this laptop. My previous laptop was a Toshiba satellite. I wish I had gone to a store to test them out. Mistake on my part. Here are some things that I find frustrating (which do not include anything about Windows 7 frustrations).
Opening the lid. My Toshiba was easy and could be done with one hand. This one needs two hands and is a nuisance. Also, the screen does not fold all the way back so it is flat. I enjoyed this on my other laptop for various reasons.
Location of keys – WHY OH WHY is the delete key (which is used very frequently) on the top of the keyboard instead of down at the bottom. There are two NEVER used keys down at the bottom center which would be a perfect location for this. I don’t like or want a number keypad, but they all seem to come with one.
I am a very fast touch typist and the keyboard is not intuitive to use. I am having frequent difficulty finding the ‘home’ keys. The keys on the Toshiba were a tad curved. These are all flat and not comfortable. Another big nuisance.
Power cord – the cord is an ‘L’ shape that hooks into the side. Poor design – often coming undone as I move the laptop from my lap to the couch. There is a loud beep to alert me to this, and that is helpful. I just am tired of hearing it so often.
Volume control – on the Toshiba this was a little wheel on the front of the laptop. I could VERY quickly adjust volume. The Acer has an icon that you click on, and then must adjust the volume level with either the touch pad or mouse.
Appearance – clean and nice color. Not much trouble with fingerprints at all. If the things that bug me don’t bother you, then you might be happy with this laptop.
I believe if I had tested these out at a store, I might have noticed these things. Is this a typical keyboard. Don’t know. I am going to Best Buy this week for another reason and am going to take a look – just out of interest.
What a year of annoyance- I had to send in for repair 4 times for the same problem (they never could fix it). They make you pay to ship it to them (make sure and factor that into the price you pay). I initiated mediation through Dept. of Consumer Affairs- they’re response was I would have to keep sending it back for repair. So I had to take them to small claims court. They settled out of court for purchase price plus $40 for court fees plus $40 for misc. but definitely not worth the hassles.
This is the first Acer product that I’ve purchased and I’m really impressed with it so far. I really like the keyboard, particularly the calculator feature. Programs run smoothly and quickly too. I would highly recommend this laptop.
This is a great laptop for those not serious about development work. The battery isn’t that great, but then I am never running my laptop for greatest battery life. I need power at all times. Intel VT is disabled on the chip, preventing true x64 bit OS virtual machines to run in it. Other than that, I have no problems to announce. It’s still early on for me however, since I just got the laptop about 1.5 months ago. I would recommend it to non-IT professionals. Unfortunately, I didn’t buy it for its entertainment value, but I’v got no compliants so far.
great laptop .fast with a lot of features.only battery does not have enough capacity.that is why a gave it a 4 star
