£1 499 and you get
what you got?!
Ouch! I paid £800
for the aspire,
almost half what
you paid for. Two
and a half months
down the line the
thing started
peeling off and the
charger charged
when it was in the
mood. After getting
rid of it I went
back to my Hp
desktop until I
bought an hp
laptop last year.
Last month I
bought a dell
inspiron 1720 and it
made me realised
how so so the hp
laptop build quality
is. I don't mean to
sing the dell
praises but it
deserves all the
praises. I've
actually resolved to
buy from dell as
from now on.

Yeah £1499 for something as useful as a bog roll, just thought it was the pentium III causing all the heat issues, oh well. I did think on buying a dell but bought a Toshiba A30 after that, the Toshiba is still here, it's a satellite. I believe this is it's 5 year running and had only two minor repairs.

Half way since I owned the Toshiba, I was tempted in getting the Dell XPS 13" / MSI gaming laptop / Alienware Area 51 at the end I settled for the Alienware didn't look back!!! Build quality was ace, it was a bit bulky but it had 2 processors it was and still is the dogs danglies!! it can play most up to date games like crysis, COD4 (top settings) etc.

For portability I use a Macbook now, has been going strongly even after a few mods, like my signature on the glowing apple (top lid), hdd swap to 320gb, ram 4gb.

In all honesty there are two people (and probably more) who thinks acer could do with using better quality materials externally!

Hey, everything
worked out fine,
even if it was after
£1 499. Alienware is
good, also came up
as an option when I
purchased the dell.
I'm hoping to
replace my hp
(notebook) towards
the end of the year,
my sister's been
nagging me about
giving it to her. The
Xps 15" is definitely
my next acquisition.
