    Hi,

    My local notebooks shop want to sell me the acer 5671A instead of the 5672. The claim that the 5671A is a more expensive notebook but the are willing to sell it at the price of a 5672.

    Is this true? I can't seem to find any info on the 5671A that tells me this is a better deal than 5672

    Thanks

    I think, they r bluffing. Or maybe not. Ask for the data of the 2.
    I ve checked some shops, the 5672 hav ATI X1600, T2300 core, 1.3 MP Webcam, Slot in DVD drive, Bluetooth. If the 5671 hav everyone of them and extra more. Then get it. (I m not sure which version of 5672 ur referring to, 1 version of the 5672 have ATI X1400 not the x1600.)

    I also can not find the 5671A

    But here are the differences

    5671A has XT1600, 120HD and T2050

    5672 has XT1400, smaller disk and T2300

    Thats the only difference the shop told me

    If the 5671A has X1600 then it's their newer/latest 5672WLMi model - for some reason they don't change model numbers, kinda like Dell E1505 that comes with Integrated, X1300, X1400 and now 7400 GO.
