    Our copy of the 2008 Buyer's Guide just showed up.

    Under "15.4-inch Workhorse" the Acer 5920-6313 comes in 6th out of 8.
    Another Acer, the 5100-5674, shows up in the "15.4-inch Budget" rankings.

    Yeah, gino, I don't know how many laptops they tested but consider it a good sign if CR listed it at all. 6 out of 8 sounds mediocre unless they tested 100 laptops :)
