Acer Laptop Aspire AMD Dual-Core Processor C-50 (1.0GHz) 3GB Memory 250GB HDD AMD Radeon HD 6250 15.6" Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit AS5253-BZ893

Pros: I like most everything about this notebook. The performance of the Fusion C-50 is impressive for being only 1.0GHz. The HD 6250 video is amazing. I was able to play Counter Strike: Source comfortably at 1280 x 720 and got Just Cause 2 to run decently with lowest settings/resolution. Very attractive overall look and feel. The design is comfortable and simplistic.

Cons: Lots of bloatware, not the fastest/largest hard drive, and the mono speaker idea seems kinda lame (though the more I think about it, laptop speakers always suck anyway and I can always plug in speakers/headphones).

Overall Review: The CPU speed is somewhat a bottleneck, but for the price you really cant beat the performance this thing offers, especailly for gaming.

Pros: It's affordable It looks great in my opinion It has good hardware (for the most part, see below)

Cons: The processor. This thing kinda lacks. It's slow, so don't be expecting to play ANY high end games.

Overall Review: I only knocked off one egg for this because it was for my girlfriend's little sister. She plays Mahjong and messes around with MS Paint, and little games like Zomg and such. It's good enough for her, and while the processor isn't great, the price for overall value is very good. First acer I've used, and it's not bad.

Pros: Good video chipset, HDMI, speedy for web browsing.

Cons: Not the best processor, but at the price, its really really good.

Overall Review: Pretty much the best laptop you can buy for word processing, streaming videos, browsing the web, and whatnot.

Pros: Nice cheap laptop. Runs cool and quiet. Bought it for web use, skype and watching netflix - all which this laptop does fine. Acer and M$ crapware was removed in 30 minutes.

Cons: No Windows disk (which is sadly typical).

Pros: Great Price, video card, big screen, 8 gb ddr3 max memory.

Cons: slow hard drive

Overall Review: Processor would be a con if it wasn't for the price. Runs 1080P video smoothly.

Pros: Big screen, low cost, decent power

Cons: none

Overall Review: best bang for the buck. bought 7 so far and surprisingly have had no problem. I've been recommending them left and right.

Pros: It's not the fastest machine but you get what you pay for. I think I received a pretty good deal though.

Cons: None yet.

Pros: This was exactly what I was looking for. I needed HDMI to connect to my big screen and this has it. Laptop is lighter than the other bricks I have owned and still use at work. I like that, for sure. So far, everything is great.

Cons: None really, except the extra cost for the HDMI port over other models I checked.
