Negus, I'm a believer of the durability of ASUS notebooks and their excellence in keeping the whole computer cool to touch despite long hours of operation. Acers suck at those departments. Their products often disintegrate to bits after a year or two. I know because I was foolish enough to buy two. hehe.
Acer has a slightly better processor, Core i5 but the Asus K42 series will also have Core i5 soon if you can wait for it.
