Pros: It worked very well, while it worked...A fast machine that did everything I asked of it.

Cons: Power board connection issues made dependence on this machine impossible...

Overall Review: I had an Acer in the past that was plagued with power issues... had to replace the power board inside it twice. When the second power board stopped working, I gave up on that computer, and bought this one as a replacement. I had a it about a week before it began to show the same problem; the computer just stops charging, and the power cord must be wiggled and twitched until the battery starts charging again. From experience with the older one, i knew this problem would only get worse. Eventually, the cord will not connect no matter how it is wiggled.......With great reluctance, I returned it for a refund. According to the Internet this is a known issue among Acers.
