If you want BIG screen Blu-ray portability. . . this IS IT! I love Windows 7 too (sooo much better than Vista!!!) & the attractive blue color. It was exactly what I was looking for & was just released as well (Gotta enjoy having the latest gadgets while you can, right?!). You WON’T go wrong on this MONSTROUS value for the dollar. . . I promise! BIG Kudos to Acer!!! Rating: 5 / 5

Very good value and solid construction for a plastic case. The 2. 13mhz dual Core i3 processor runs very cool, quiet and sips power. H. 264 encoding went very quickly compared to my old duo pro. Since the display demands a large case, the keyboard includes a 10-key pad which comes in handy. There is a button that disables the touchpad, which is handy when you are using the mouse. Disc drive plays blu ray and burns DVDs, neat-o.
I just have a few minor gripes that the low price tag makes me happy to overlook. One is that I wish it had 1920×1080 resolution with a screen this size. Unfortunately this is the highest res of any current Acer laptop. Another gripe is that the BIOS does not let you unable some useless buttons such as a button to turn on/off wifi and a bright LED display that indicates whether the power is on or off.
The bottom line is that this computer is a steal for this price.
