Acer Aspire 5742Z 15.6 inch Laptop ( Intel Pentium P6100, 4GB RAM, 500GB HDD, DVD, Webcam, Wireless, Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit) - Black Promo Offer
Product Description
Well worth the money
I bought this laptop to cope with photo editing and everyday office and browsing applications. So far it has performed brilliantly on all these tasks (and even running on the battery).
Setup is very easy. Simply turn on and follow a few on screen steps. Acer have included their recovery wizard which prompts you to create 3 DVD's used to recover the system should something go wrong. I would recommend you do this as soon as you are prompted to as there are no software discs supplied with the laptop.
The one thing I have noticed over everything is the noise produced by the laptop... there isn't any!! The only hint that it is switched on is the glow from the very impressive display. Images are crystal clear and very sharp.
Overall a very good purchase, well worth the money. Acer have always been reliable for me - I still have a 9 year old Acer that still works fine for managing the ipod. Lets hope this lasts me another 9 years.

Review 2 : Acer Aspire 5742Z
I bought this laptop as a Christmas present for myself because of the remarkable price. My previous laptop was also an
Acer so I already knew it would be reliable.
The laptop is already pre-installed with Windows 7. I just had to follow and click through the instructions to setup which
was very easy to do. Acer has also pre-installed additions which has some extra games/software which is good.
On first impressions the laptop looks great, slim and sleek and is surprisingly lightweight. The LCD screen is bright and
vibrant and very easy to read. The fact that it's wide screen made it great for browsing the Internet and watching movies.
The keyboard was a great idea, including the full numeric pad which made the laptop very user friendly. The keys on the
keyboard have just the right amount of spacing however the keyboard does take some getting used to. The mouse-pad is smooth
and very reactive with a scroll bar to the right which was very handy...
