erm, could be better, could be worse.... spec wise its certainly nothing too special....

however i am sure its perfectly adequate for most home/small business type functions,

Katrina-trying_to_save!?!

so i didnt get a bargain then awwwwww

MrBen_4

Acer are good price/spec laptops. I don't think you've done bad.

Hillfly

I think it'll serve you well for a wee while yet.
Not a bargain but no bad either.

Katrina-trying_to_save!?!

i am thinking of buying a dell one but sell this current one. not sure as i have never sold on ebay and not sure how much to reserve it for......

Hillfly

Reserve it for how much you would be happy to sell it for. Maybe consider the reserve as the price of the new laptop you want? (remember to include ebay seller fees).

Also remembre to 'big up' the spec on ebay. People pay way over the odds on ebay for laptops.
