I love it

Acer Laptop Aspire AMD A6-3420M 4GB Memory 500GB HDD AMD Radeon HD 6520G 15.6" Windows 7 Home Premium 64-Bit AS5560-7402

Pros: I've had this laptop for about 3 days and so far I'm very impressed with it, I've only loaded 1 game on it to try it out, crysis 2 and it plays it flawlessly. Not sure about the battery life yet seems it's gonna be around 3hrs maybe but that is with all the bells and whistles going. It really doesn't get to hot my old netbook would get almost too hot to keep on your lap. The sound is decent on this laptop better than I thought it would be. The A6-3420m seems to do quite well at whatever I throw at it so far. The bloatware was manageable nothing to bad. I think with an ssd drive in it, it would be so awesome of a laptop.

Cons: acer's documentation is lacking, this laptop has the turbo core but it doesn't mention it anywhere in the manual that came with it. No recovery disk you have to make your own with the acer software, but most companies are doing it that way anymore.

Overall Review: For under 500 bucks I love this thing so far we'll see how it holds up, ordered it sunday evening was here on wed I use newegg for all my computer stuff, I've never been let down.

Pros: Easy to install, fast boot times, price was under 100 dollars during black friday.

Cons: Installed it right after christmas worked for about a week and half and all of sudden bios won't read it and so I took it out and connected to my desktop and nothing there either so going to RMA for a new one and see if maybe I just got a bad one.

Bought it at Best Buy
