    virtually the same spec as the Acer, fine for most general use, including browsing.

    What is the price?

    They sell this Compaq model in Tesco stores. Unfortunately, out of stock in mine except for the demonstrators. It seems to be quite a good screen. Do a compare on Tesco's web site. Very few differences - slight difference in screen technology.

    I have ordered one as the Acer, if it ever comes back in stock, won't be within the current 20% discount offer.
