    you can get an ASUS F8 A1 or B1 in the same price range ,the ASUS is faster and comes with 2 year international warranty plus accidental insurance package.

    also, it's got better case.

    dont get Acers.

    Hater ... X2

    My 5920G is built well, works well and runs smoothly.
    I really wish people would actually try the machine before basing their "opinions" on older models.

    Offtopic: Any of you suffered those same experiences with the Aspire 5920/5920G? If not, your comments aren't really applying. They don't anyway since they isn't about the topic.

    Ontopic: I don't know for sure what the difference is but I got 2 Aspires, one 5920 and one 5920G and the big difference was that the 5920 had al good spec's but an Intel card, as the 5920G had slightly lower spec's and an Nvidia 8600m GS graphics card.

    Then just as pointless a post as the off topic ones I would have said. :p
    My 5920G has a T7300, 160 gig hd, cd/dvd rewriter, bluetooth, 2 gig of ram and a Nvidia 8600 GT card.
    Loads of different spec machines around now for the 5920.

    You are a born stirrer that is under the impression that people take your posts seriously. All you do is condemn Acer (maybe you worked for them and they fired you?). Back your posts up with facts.

    Instead of trolling. You are no help to the Acer forum - just a pest.

    Rather go away until you can contribute positively...

    Or at least give a reason why you personally with Acer experience have this crappy attitude.
