    I have been looking forward to buy this notebook, but there are somethings that I still don't get on this laptop.

    1. Is the graphics video card on the Acer ferrari better than the Radeon X1400 located on the Dell E1505?

    2. Is it faster than the Dell E1505

    3. Does it have the crystalbrite technology from Acer? If so which model is it?

    Please help me up all you Ferrari owners or experts... Thanx in advance

    Bano....

    The Ferrari's X700 is a mainstream card,which is better than the X1400. I cannot vouch for the rest since I own the Aspire 5672WLMi and not the Ferrari. If you have the cash to spend,it's a worthy notebook with rock-solid build quality(or so I hear).

    WHY Ferrari?

    Essentially Ferrari's are nothing more than AMD (and Ferrari branded) versons of TravelMate
    F400x of TM810x and F500x of TM820x

    If you have the spare money for the F-branding, you could aswell spend it on a higher end T-model.

    It looks cool, I know ...

    Cheers
