    trets,

    It is better to post your issue here, rather than referring people to an external website? x

    I have 2 Acer Computers, they are 100%, brilliant value, well engineered.:p
  • My first ever PC was an Acer, it was so good that I have have always bought Acer since. No complaints here.
    Between two evils, I always pick the one I never tried before

    Don't be silly.

    Acer are the best, on the whole I have never had a problem and being a techie sort of guy I have had a few. My sister has one too.

    It's Dell you need to steer clear of.




    And could you please edit your first post to say "an Acer", it's really annoying.

    For confirmation: No, I'm not a 40 year old woman, I'm a 26 year old bloke!

    My Acer laptop is the only PC/Mac I have had that hasn't broken at some point ;)
  • sorry have to agree with the op acer are pants, cheap mass produced rubbish and far far from being 'well engineered'
  • we bought an acer laptop and its c..p. it has gone back to be fixed with the same problem 4 TIMES in 2 months. at work we had a new acer laptop as well and that went back the 2nd day. load of rubbish.
