    I am looking for a new laptop now (mainly for some office work and financial modeling with Excel, and also... gaming, FarCry and NFSMW), and I am considering Acer since it has several interesting model. I have been thinking of buying the Aspire 5672 because I like its glossy screen with a 1,280 x 800 res (higher res found in the TravelMate 8204 and the Ferrari 4005 does not interest me, since the fonts will be too small for me). A couple days ago I examined the Ferrari series closely in an Acer shop, and I just realized that Ferrari 4002 comes with 1,280 x 800 glossy screen. So here are my questions to all Ferrari 4002 owners in this forum:

    1. Do you feel the 1.6 GHz Turion 64 processor is fast enough?
    2. Can you game FarCry, NFSMW, or HL2 in full res (1,280 x 800)? With all eye candy on?
    3. Are you satisfied with the Ferrari 4002?

    Thanks in advance... best regards,
    Robby
