    To owners of Acer, is it durable? Are you satisfied with it?
    I'm asking cause I saw this: http://www.pc-canada.com/item.asp?it...mpaign=shopbot

    I will be going to Canada next month and thinking of getting it to replace my 14 inch Asus U80. I'm happy with the Asus but am getting tired of carrying around. I want something smaller and lighter without sacrificing speed by going with a netbook.

    Programs used: IE9, Google Chrome, Open Office, VLC and U******* mostly. No gaming. Just office use, surfing, downloading and its my video player.

    ACER is known to be the Value brand. Pricewise.

    I've had two Acers, first one is a tablet type. kahit anong gawin ko ayaw masira. ako na ang sumuko at bumili ng bago.

    In our family, we've had 2 out of 3 Acers wherein its battery conked out right about the time the warranty expired.The same two laptops have both their hinges crack within 2 years of normal use.

    Same with mine - acquired in 2006.

    Nasira din agad ang Hinges in just 2 years time though ginagamit pa din namin as desktop kasi permanent na location nya sa house and hindi na namin sinasara yong lid dahil nga sa crack na yong hinge.

    Tapos dami pang cracks sa case as if stressed yong body niya eh maalaga naman kami sa gamit.

    Then last year, intermittent na yong pagkawala ng display nya - i think related don sa pagkasira ng hinge pero pinagtyagaan pa din namin gamitin.

    Early this year, nasira na yong Power Adapter nya so hindi na sya mai-ON ngayon kaya pahinga na sya.

    I will not patronize another Acer Laptop again.

    Last year, I settled for a lenovo to replace the dying Acer laptop.

ok ba acer laptop?
