thanks…..just to clarify from the other store the offer i confirmed is $499 after cashback. Need is for personal/home use, very casual gaming, prefer decent performance & decent batter life……
I am bit confused between this one and….
http://www.centrecom.com.au/acer-aspire-v5-573-54204g50amm-w…Both are identicals but V5 doesn't have DVD drive….which i think is nice to have….your opinion pls…
this was posted as a deal here
Big plus is the 4th gen i5. Normally for this price you would be getting a 3rd gen i3
thanks Zelda…4th Gen i5 something attracts me to this deal. The only downside i found from looking at http://www.notebookcheck.net/Review-Acer-Aspire-E1-572G-5420… is that speakers are at the bottom of unit….not ideal
the Battery life on this is going to be pretty crappy. Also the processor is ultra low energy variant with a Clock Speed of only 1.6 GHz (dual core) I think most of the I3's would rip this apart
on the plus side it is using the 4400 hd onboard graphics

fyi if you really need an external dvd
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Samsung-Slim-External-DVD-RW-Driv…$200 more gets you a quad core and a graphics card http://www.centrecom.com.au/copy-of-hp-pavilion-g6-2324tx-d5…
That would give you some power to run games.
thanks…running games is not the need, at the most very casually. I agree if i was picking for myself i7 would be the way to go. I guess given the price and hopefully claiming TRS makes decent price for i5 4th Gen….
Its $678.00 and has $81 cash back? Its also the cheapest model (the E1) Acer make. If it were $430 and I needed a cheap nasty laptop ordered today, maybe.
what do you need from a PC ?
