Laptop Purchase!

9300_L_400x340 Laptop Purchase!

Yeah, I went through with it and did it. I decided to go with Acer and plumped for a Aspire 9301AWSMi. This baby features:

  • AMD Turion 64 MK-36 2.00GHz Processor
  • 17″ WXGA Widescreen TFT CrystalBrite Display
  • 100GB HardDrive
  • 1024MB DDR II RAM Memory
  • DVD Super Multi Double-Layer Drive
  • Acer InviLinkâ„¢ 802.11b/g Wi-Fi, Gigabit Ethernet, 56K ITU V.92 modem
  • Built-in 5-in-1 Card Reader
  • Built-in 0.3 megapixel OrbiCam
  • NVIDIA GeForce Go 6100
  • Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition and MS-Works

The RAM can be upgraded to 4GB, the screen is large and is a nice new Turion.

But thats not all, I also ordered a new wireless router so I can surf on the move:

3Com Router

The credit card is suffering but I am happy!

Christ,

That price would make a normal person re-think the purchase they want to make in about three months that’s just over triple the price AND from dell…

Luckily (or so I hope) I am not normal. What kind of warranty are you purchasing? I am getting my self an all-risk type of deal that lasts 4 whole years…

No warranty, I think it has a pretty decent standard one.
