acer 5315

i baught this as a cheap notebook to carry on jobs with me because of the laptop's connectivity options! the laptop contains both a wireless nic and a 10/100 wired card built in plus an old 56k modem!
the acer 5315 looks cheap with its plastic case but, is more durable than it looks! the integrated web cam was more than adequate! my unit came with vista home basic!
crapware abounds on this laptop! i have never seen so much crapware on any computer! it took me 30-40 minutes to remove it all!

their are 2 complaints that i have with this laptop! the first being it's integrated touchpad! it was so sensetive! it would select things by itself and open windows by itself, etc... just from moving your hand anywhere near it! i had to disable it in favor of a usb mouse!

the second problem i had was plugging in usb cables into it's ports was very, very, hard! just make sure you have both hands holding the laptop firmly when you plug things in lest it end up on the floor! i suspect this problem may improve as the laptop ages!

for less than 500.00! you can't really complain about it's performance! i find it has an adequate screen and fairly good perfomance for the price!
