    Hi,

    I want to buy that Laptop as far as it is good. The one thing that disturbs me a bit is its 15.4" screen, which is doubtful if it will play well for games.

    Does anyone have that small screen and made good experience with it?

    Below are the specs, pretty good i guess.

    Is Intel Centrino good?

    Acer Aspire 1694WLMI

    • Proz: Intel Centrino M-760/2.0 GHz
    • Memory: 1024 MB DDR2-SD-RAM
    • 100-GB-Harddisk
    • Display: 15.4" TFTWXGA/shared 128 MB
    • 8x DVD+/-RW, Dual Layer
    • LAN/WLAN/Modem analog/4-1 Cardreader
    • Windows XP home, 2.95 kg

    Please help me make a decision. I will use my laptop mainly for travel and games, expecing long battery life.

    Thanks so much! :)

    Hi, can't think that they shouldn't as they play well on my 17"WS. Not sure what you mean by small though...

    thanks for the reply. Apparently they work fine, but when i went to the shop today it just seemed a bit small the screen but that should not be a problem.

    One more question, Intel Centrino is that good or bad?

    thakns so much

    You should read some reviews of laptops that have Centrino, to come to the conlcusion of wether or not they are bad.

    The X700 will handle all your games.
