| 843739 | 2009-12-28 03:25:00 | As a rule NO, those specs are nice but wouldnt expect build quality to be very good | hueybot3000 (3646) | ||
| 843740 | 2009-12-28 03:33:00 | If you have very low expectations and don't mind the inconvenience of the machine constantly breaking down, then Acer will suit you just fine. For that price you could get a damn good Asus (www.ascent.co.nz)or Toshiba (www.ascent.co.nz)with very similar specs. |

| 843742 | 2009-12-28 03:35:00 | Thank You hueybot3000 and others will pass on your comments I recommended they get Toshiba (what I use) or Asus but they still seem keen to buy it (Fools should listen to advice when they ask for it) | Roger Hunt (13648) | ||
| 843743 | 2009-12-28 03:42:00 | I can vouch for Asus, never had a problem with mine. And it feels solid enough that I could stand on it | hueybot3000 (3646) | ||
| 843744 | 2009-12-28 03:45:00 | (Fools should listen to advice when they ask for it)Yes indeed, but then they wouldn't be fools anymore and finding a new hobby is such a drag!;) | KarameaDave (15222) | ||
| 843745 | 2009-12-28 05:33:00 | Depending on what they are planning to do with it at school you may want to look into one with a long life battery or more power friendly specs. | stormdragon (6013) | ||
| 843746 | 2009-12-29 00:52:00 | Thanks stormdragon we didn't think about battery life will pass on your comments, ta | Roger Hunt (13648) | ||
| 843747 | 2009-12-29 00:57:00 | Yes indeed, but then they wouldn't be fools anymore and finding a new hobby is such a drag!;) Dave you are such a funny man. I get so much to laugh about from this site it's become more than just a help site, Its entertainment plus mate.:lol: |
