    Hi all! I am considering ACER TravelMate 8473TG, this is new 14" model with i5-2410m and gt 540m. I would like to hear your opinions on this laptop. I am a bit worried about cooling since hardware is quite powerful and laptop is 14" and 26mm thick. I think it will overheat very fast while gaming and multitasking...
    This is gonna be my first laptop and i don't know much about them yet. :rolleyes: Too bad i can't find any actual reviews on this model.

    I'm very interested in this model too. The lcd-panel is called Acer ComfyView, does that mean it is matte or glossy? Can anyone find a good review of the Acer 8473?
