I've been asked to find a new laptop for someone going out of the country for a few months for under or around $500. Found an Acer that will be around 549 after rebates. Never used an Acer myself. Anyone have experience with them or opinions on Acer machines?

I've had about 4 of them for people, they seem good laptops can't say I had any problems.

Cheap laptops, but i cant see anything wrong with them tbh. I think a few of my friends have owned a few with minimal problems.

Acer used to be a big company several years back. They've just dropped off the media.
I've dealt with Acer computers and never had any serious problems.

never had any issues but they aren't built very well.

a friend of mine has one, he says the same thing - nothing fancy, but it's been reliable for him
