    Hello

    I'm trying to find info on an aspire... Not the model # itself as that is not the problem, but the sub model #...

    The model is Acer Aspire 8930G, but the sub model # is 6963 and that is where my research seems to go dry... Does anyone have info on this sub model # ???

    Also i might ask is how user friendly is the 8930G for upgrades as for the processor and video ??? The current processor is the T5800 with the 9600m nvidia... Would it make sense to upgrade and what is the potential of this 8930G with the T5800 ??? Thanks in advance...

    Thanks Chriscatt---but i am striking out on finding info on the 6963... I tried to phone Acer, but without a serial # I can't get through to tech support...

    Someone on another forum said they think that sub model is a Canadian bi-lingual notebook... The saga continues... Thanks...

    They can be pretty confusing.
