Just got a new Laptop.. Acer Aspire 1674WLMI

This is what i got... What do you think?

Aspire 1674WLMi


Intel® Pentium® 4 HT processor 3.4GHz (800FSB/1MB) (Prescott)
15.4" WXGA WideScreen colour TFT LCD with 1280 x 800 pixel resolution
1024MB DDR333 Memory (2x512)
80GB HDD Toshiba ATA/100
DVD-RW Duel layer Drive (+/-) Internal
64MB ATI MOBILITYâ„¢ RADEONâ„¢ 9700
3D Stereo Sound
4x USB 2.0 - 5in1 card reader
S-Video out - 1394 Firewire - 56k Modem
Infared - PCMICA card Slot
Wired & Wireless 802.11g LAN with Signal Up® antenna technology.
Belkin Blutooth dongle 100m
Li-lon battery (1.5 hours usage)
3.4Kg in weight

£838 about $1500 US... Probably cheaper in the states as the UK is always expensive lol ÂÂ!

I like it but with the prescott it heats up and the fans are noisy working overtime to cool it down.. If i play a game the CPU and GPU fans come on together and it sounds like a plane taking off lol..

But its so hot its saves on the heating bills in the winter....
All that said and done. I have to admit overall i am very happy.. good desktop replacemet for the money plenty of power.. And the same specs in a sony or IBM is around £1800 Loz

Yes it is very true the UK is very exspensive for electronic goods i know that in Singapore you could pick this laptop up for about 800 usd. But we live where we live and the government taxes us so much. GRRRR Uk government are you not rich enough yet?
