It has so many nice features, 4 gigs of memory, 4 USB slots, a built in modem, 2.1 gig CPU and I could go on and on. It is a long list of features. I have only had it for 4 days and am impressed with it in so many ways. So far I am pleased with Windows 7. It seems pretty solid and it does have some nice touches to it. A word of caution on this model is that it does not come with backup DVD's. You will need at least 4 blank DVD disks and the built in backup program works very smoothly. <br />One irritant I ran into was a very annoying Macaffe (trial version) pop-up window every few minutes. I solved that by deleting the program. As the Acer comes with a 320 gig hard drive you will find that you have only about 260 gigs free. There is a lot of junk on the hard drive that could come off to free up more space. <br />I recommend this Acer and gave it 5 stars. I also am very well pleased with Amazon.

The unit stays remarkably cool and the battery lasts 3.5-4.5 hrs (I think)

Seems to pick up more wireless signals and stronger

Incidently the notebook has 4 usb inputs! – 2 on each side!

Volume + and – keys are nice when watching DVD’s

It doesn’t have built in bluetooth but evidently another model must because it has a (disbled) bluetooth on off key

It comes in a small box with just the battery and charger and very little literature (most is loaded on the hard disk and available online. good – less clutter

I made the single repair disk but haven’t done the big 5 disk image. I also deleted MacAfee

The display is great--large and very sharp. Everything works very quickly, and there weren't too many junky programs preloaded. <br /> <br />HOWEVER, they keyboard is really terrible. It fails to recognize about 1 in 10 letters I type. Then, sometimes, it doubles letters. It is very, very frustrating to type on this thing. I would not recommend it if you have lots of typing to do!
