I’m a businessman. I have some very thorough research on laptops in the range of power for money and what ACER4810TZ-4474 was the winner. I bought it on Amazon and I am very happy with it so far.

My main use of a laptop on business trips and business trips involving aircraft with seating cramped. A large part of my journey from coast to another, then I want the time to good use. This resulted in a need for a small size and long battery life. I have big hands so I need a full size keyboard. This combination provided that the physical limitations.

I found that almost all small computers netbook and long battery life has been, but was not the processor speed and full-size keyboard that I needed. On the other hand, most laptops, the processor and the full-size keyboard, but he missed the life of the battery and the small size I needed. This computer has almost the perfect size for me. It has a full size keyboard and long battery life with enough processing power and small enough to use on an airplane.

The chassis of the computer is very strong and exceptionally well done. There is no flex and the fit and finish is first class. I really like the design. It is very thin but very clean and strong. The outside casing is a dark gray with a matte finish that does not collect fingerprints.

The keyboard uses wrenches above, I do not know how I like. He felt a little strange at first, but with a bit of use, did I really feel and function of the keyboard. The screen is excellent. It is clear. He wants to be seen directly, so good for surfing Anti-shoulder, but not as good for two people to watch.

The drive is fast and silent. The screen hinges are incredibly strong. The computer’s performance so far is excellent in all directions. I’m not a timer on the battery life, but I am absolutely certain that the five hours of typing and sometimes access to the disk rotation.

I was very interested in a device similar to ASUS, but read many complaints about the poor performance of the mouse pad on these computers. The mouse pad on Acer’s strong performance. The CD / DVD has a neat feature in that the eject button on the top of the frame instead of hidden on the side of the device.

The ability to capture signals Wi-Fi is amazing. My Dell D600, which will replace the unit, shows three stations. In exactly the same place, this device displays ACER 7 stations.

My only complaint on this point is pre-installed McAfee and Norton and other software that I want nothing to do with. I look forward to the challenge of McAfee and Norton to remove it. I removed the trial MS Office 2007, then bought an Office 2007 Standard Upgrade hard drive and installed without problems. This computer comes with MS Works 9 and Works 9 is eligible for an upgrade to Office 2007 Standard, a free upgrade to Office 2010 when it will be released. This has saved over $ 100.

One last thing … widescreen format works much better in aircraft for the President limit the ability of the screen completely open. All widescreen notebooks better than their elders, more rectangular screen laptops. But all widescreens are not equal. Some bottom hinge of the screen above the base. This makes the top of the screen larger than a similar sized screen on a laptop that the hinge points lower on the back of the base. placed side by side with most of its competitors, the top of the screen of the Acer, when open, not like over the surface of the table like that of most of its competitors. This means that a narrow plane, my chance to fully open the screen have been improved.

I am from Best Buy several times since the purchase and each time I come away very pleased to have found this computer. In fact, I paid $ 100 to $ 200 more to get over what is available to my needs. I bought here at Amazon. Fast, Free Shipping and exceptionally well packaged. The Acer is a strong box.
