    Well I took the Plunge and ordered the Aspire 1711 from Newegg.com since weight and portablity was not really a issue, the darn screensize was. I wanted to thank everyone in this forum it is a great place to learn :) Anyways wanted to hear some feedback from anyone who owns this monster :)[ :)][ :)]

    [ :)] WOW that model is a monster, I don't own one but I was thinking about buying that unit through newegg too. I would like to know how the gaming is on that unit. I'm thinking about going with the http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=34-115-116&depa=0 not as tough but with a decent vid card.

    Guiness, I didnt find many reviews at all on Acer, One or two on epinions.com and a few others, read nothing bad about them per say. Would like to know myself, You are getting the more beastly model than I am, but still for the price and what that one offers is fantastic! Same reason I picked the lower model :)
