    Anyone has this laptop Acer Aspire 4551 to comment?
    It comes with the AMD Turion II Quad Core N930@ 2GHZ 35Watt TDP.
    Quite interested in the thermal specs as well as performance.

    Wow if WEI is to be trusted 6.9 for Processor is a very good score.

    1.5-2.5 hour battery life with a 6-cell battery? That's miserable.

    Not sure you'd get much more from an Intel quad.
