Acer Aspire 15.6" Laptop PC (AS5253-BZ481) with 250GB Hard Drive ...

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Well, I got this laptop about 3 months ago. It's been okay for the things I do with it. Sometimes when I'm playing music, browsing bose headphones the internet, and chatting on IM, either music or internet lags. The CD drive feels like it might just snap in two at any moment; every time I open it, it feels so flimsy. The keyboard is nice, but sometimes the right hand click is hard to press down. The mouse pad also gets stuck sometimes and when I'm typing, sometimes it makes weird movements or gestures. On the pro side, it has a very nice display and the webcam is HD. It also comes with a microphone, so feel free to video call anyone you please (although with the laptop's processing speed, the webcam lags even Monster Headphones if it's being used offline). The speakers are very mediocre -- somewhat tinny and quiet -- so if that's important to you, invest in some external speakers (after all, the laptop is so cheap, you may as well). The laptop is thin and lightweight, very portable. It does feel breakable rather than sturdy, though. And, of course, given the laptop's price, don't expect to be able to play many games on this laptop. I can run The Sims 2 just fine (NOT The Sims 3 -- I haven't tried, but it's much newer and processing intensive), but it's from 2004, and it even lags frequently enough. Just don't install lots of random programs that will suck up processing speed in the background. The 250GB storage is fine. It actually comes with around 200GB because of Win7 and everything. It's adequate for your pictures and documents, but don't expect to be able to install many large programs or keep lots of movies on it.Don't get me wrong -- given the price, I'm very satisfied. You probably will be too (if you wanted a laptop that was sturdy, fast, and had lots of storage, you wouldn't be looking at a >400 laptop, would you?).Click Here to see more reviews about: Acer Aspire 15.6" Laptop PC (AS5253-BZ481) with 250GB Hard Drive, 2GB Memory - BlackClick here for more information about Acer Aspire GHD IV Styler MK4 Pure Black Hair Straightener Jam -stylers blog 15.6" Laptop PC (AS5253-BZ481) with 250GB Hard Drive, 2GB Memory - Black
