It's not bad. It's a so so laptop at that price, you can get better for £600, in fact there was an Acer for £500, which had a better spec:

If you want a better graphics card try this:

BTW the Aldi one says "High Gloss design" but I think that refers to the case paint not the screen. It might have a shiny screen, but I don't think it's something you should worry about.0 -
Not sure you have won me over only 1 yr warranty vs 3. Hard Drive 1/2 the size and this is always the thing that I end up upgrading first.0

Packard Bell LJ65DT10
that from dixons
same price
very similar specs
only difference is 0.2ghz less on the processor but its not much really, plus theres an ati gpu which at the moment is a better option over the nvidea cards.
Plus its a bigger screen.
oh and its a 5 in one card reader not 4 in 1
makes all the difference :rolleyes:Back by no demand whatsoever.0 -
:eek:3 Years warranty £209:eek:0
