    In that case legally it would be down to them to prove any fault/problem wasn't inherent rather than the burden of proof being on you to prove that it was. Essentially a small claims court (if it got to that) would say you were entitled to a repair or refund unless Acer could specifically provide evidence that it wasn't an inherent fault. By inherent fault I mean one that develops through normal use and not abusing the item.

    with the sale of goods act if a problem occurs within the first 6 months the retailer has to prove that the fault wasn't present at time of manufacture, after this period it is down to the customer to prove it was.
