If you don't like MSY, you can order it from this guy on ebay after price matching with MSY.

OR price match with OW to get $367.10 (after cash back) if they have the exact same item below (not confirm but the specs looked identical)

  • Bad thing is it's Window's 8 which is not really well suited for keyboard and mouse

      Windows 8 is fine. If you really don't like it that much you can always remove it and install Windows 7.

      Nice deal OP

    Big turn off is shared video intel hd4000. Horrible.

    • the key point is the first article for stability test. I was amazed.

      It's a sub-$400 laptop. Just what do you expect??

  • The review makes much mention of the GeoForce GT 620M- it's what they like best about the EL-571, but there is no mention of it in the Acer specs.

      The problem with laptops is the manufactures make particular versions for large businesses to selll but they still have the same model number.

    • I don't know about the ebay model (Although there's nothing about a 620M in the specs) but I checked my local Harvey Norman, Office Works and Dicks Smiths today and each only had the E1 571 with the HD4000. So be careful when price matching. Even the version on the MSY website lists the onboard graphics. Only on their price list does it show the 620M model.

    hey OP,
    isnt this a dupe?

    I bought it last time and was actually pleasantly surprised when the MSY price was less than posted in OzB post

    • There is a price drop which isn't reflected in the old post. I searched the forum before posting it but dupe post didn't come up. We'll let the mod be the judge of that.

  • OW East Perth price matched MSY Balcatta, so total price is $416.10 before cash back.

  • No USB 3.0 ??? Huh? I was pretty sure that this was a standard feature on all IB (series 7) chipsets.

    I just bought one from Officeworks Liverpool yesterday for $416.10 after price match with OnlineComputer. It was very straight forward doing the price match on the phone with staff in OW.

    Here is the proof: http://sdrv.ms/11S5QUJ

    Same product from onlinecomputer: http://www.onlinecomputer.com.au/product_info.php?products_i…

    I'm waiting for the $49 cashback which will lower the total price to $367.10

  • neotran, better remove the serial number on the invoice.

    • thanks! invoice updated.

  • Don't forget that if you buy at MSY, there is a special $29 Acer 1 year extended warranty (normally $99) but you have to buy the acer laptops…

  • Sadly Officeworks Hobart denied the price match against onlinecomputer's price. Claiming the warranty difference between their store (2 years) and online computing's (1year) meant the couldn't treat the price as the same. Oh well, looks like I'll be stuck buying it online.

    • OW price matched mine….and it comes with 2years warranty =)

  • Very happy, price matched at OW, cashback claimed, plus a gst refund at the airport. Perfect gift for dad :)

  • centrecom is also selling this is $448. Centrecom cn be used for pricematched too. $10 more but easy for price match

  • I got it and it is awesome. Its also very fast and looks quite good.

  • Has anyone registered thelaptop bought from officework for Acer warranty (Note: Acer is offering 1yr additional Accidental Warranty).

    I registered it with Acer but it is saying only 1yr standard warranty instead of 2yr as advertised on Officeworks website. Any suggestions
