i intend to keep this thread bumped and fresh , just for the hope of saving a people the hell that is a ACER computer after sales customer care .
i' ve got the will to do it and want pay back for the 10 weeks of crap they have put me through.
DO NOT BUY A ACER PRODUCT ! unless you want appalling customer service when it goes wrong.

What makes me laugh is that there's only actually a handful of laptop manufacturers anyway and lots of stuff is badged as appropriate. For example, Gericom, Clevo and Advent are the same kit.0

I've got an acer laptop, can't fault it, a core 2 duo laptop with about 4 hour battery life for under £400, nobody cam match that!0

Another thumbs-up for Acer here. We have a number of laptops from them at work and they are great, especially battery life.0

I have an Acer laptop and a monitor, no problems at all.
Both were good value for money.0
