"It's a good laptop, but don't mistake it for anything extraordinary"
What I like:
I just love this laptop, great on the internet, multimedia features, lightscribe, DVD burner, core duo processor, easy to get on a wireless LAN network
What I don't like:
"120Gb HD" is only a 99.2Gb HD, and the 1.6Ghz Core Duo is not 1.6GHz x 2 but rather 800MHz x 2 [misleading I think], games will play in slow motion, the battery only lasts about an hour and a half
Review:
The price was right, but mine was a boxing week sale, and came with a 6-megapixel digital camera and an all-in-one printer as well.

Acer Aspire One D250 Android
Pretty average netbook, and the Android OS is more of a hindrance than a help
Samsung R520
Not a bad budget laptop, but the bigger R720 is a much better option if portability isn't a prime concern
