Acer Aspire C530. Comes with a AMD Athlon 64 X2 Q-L dual-core processor so its excellent for multi-tasking. It has high end graphics with an Ati Radeon 3200 HD graphics card. I tried "The Movies" game on it, and it ran smoothly without a problem. 3GB or RAM so it runs fast and efficient. It has a 250 GB hard drive, but space is really not an issue since I got an external 320GB hard drive, so its all good.
Comes with all the basic hard ware components plus more! A built-in mic and webcam I was not in for and I was definitely surprised. It gets better! PCI/ExpressCard slot for hooking up my camera via firewire and a 5-in-1 card slot to input pictures and saved data.
The laptop is Hi-Def all around. It has a 1080p HD screen with a Tuba Subwoofer and True 5.1 Surround Sound. It also has the capability to hook up to an HDTV via an HDMI output.
Now the beefs I have with it. First, uploading videos to the internet is not any faster, the internet connection I have is at fault here. Its not fast enough. So uploading is at the same rate. Certain programs that worked with my old laptop don't work on this one. Vista could be the reason for this but I'm not sure.
But fear not I shall! This came with an offer of a FREE upgrade to Windows 7 when its released in October. Plus I got it at the price of only $329.99!! A good bargain.
Overall, it hasn't let me down comletely, plus when my old one is completely extinct, this will save my ass.
