QUOTE(defectivelasagna @ Jan 8 2010, 09:44 PM) is that for real? that's crazy rm3k for those specs? =O i am (still) a owner for Acer over 4 years...but then again it's acer...im worried for the brand itself one thing i REGRET til today..is... in 4 years.... NOTHING happened no matter how long i open it to download bt/botting online game... NEVER entered service center for FOUR years... i regret i wasted 298 for the 3 years warranty... but then...seriously...brand only mattered when ur preference...is important to have a laptop that you love~ |

QUOTE(i7xQTi @ Jan 8 2010, 10:27 PM) info on the 5470. it is supposed to beat 4570 no matter if u are a gal la...this sounds like a fantasy, i5, 4gb ram, 5470 in a 3k machine opps sry http://www.notebookcheck.net/ATI-Mobility-...70.23698.0.html i dont get why people say acer is such a bad brand. mine lasted 3 years. or is it because im a girl? i am a rough user...and my acer is really torn... and still running without problem..sigh....warranty is wasted... only thing is the hdd seems like about to retire... after 4 years of non stopping torrent and game playing.... |

QUOTE(i7xQTi @ Jan 8 2010, 10:39 PM) most acers utilize AMD, so overgaming causes heat problems. i only game less than 3 hours a day, and i dont ven use a cooler. IMO, it's how you interpret "laptop gaming" as viable on t2600 ati x1400running granado espada ~20 hrs for 5 days, about 3 months... no problem ever happened... |

QUOTE(i7xQTi @ Jan 8 2010, 10:59 PM) 3 months is quite short to test the hypothesis. plus is depends on the laptop as being work oriented or media oriented. most importantly, is it acer? yes it is |

QUOTE(LokiD.d.G @ Jan 13 2010, 11:57 AM) Technically, people do tend to "buy" the warranty too, so to speak. while acer warranty is standard, and when we buy acer's we wont expect much more from their warranty then their awesome spec...For instance, if the Acer being discussed here were to be sold for RM2500 albeit with no warranty, would you make the purchase? Dell is different as one purchase the item, would expect exceptional support and service. Support as being the point for buying a Dell, for Acer its warranty is all about insurance for the hardware, dont you agree? |

QUOTE(Eugene91 @ Jan 13 2010, 12:15 PM) the weird thing is i have a friend who dropped his 6935g and i forgot what didnt work.. Highpoint Service exchanged the parts and back to normal LoL.. I wonder what is that? Do they include accidental damage? He did told the manager he dropped it by accident.. In 3 days its back new even replaced the damaged case.. used for 4 year b4 i got my new s42..never claim warranty..so dunno...Im guessing the manager just tried to please him.. as i recall acer extended warranty doesnt have accidental damage covered.. But they did state Parts and Labour warranty.. So maybe the service centre claimed it as "normal damage" lol.. but accidental damage should be reviewed case by case basis... i trust if the damage is fixable then the service center would be too hard on customer la... |
