    hhey, first of all id like to thank everyone for their wonderful input on this laptop. I have an issue tho, i just bought this laptop today and was looking for the video in port. The manual says they are in the back but i dont see anything, and the place where i got it from up in canada says that it has video in on it. Am i missing something or was this false advertising?

    Does anyone else have the video in ports?

    thanks

    Video in? I don't think it's got video in. Not a lot of laptops have that functionality. With the 5672WLMi, you get DVI, VGA, and S-Video... All outputs.

    for the 5672WLMi there is NO video in. if you get the next version up, with 2 gigs of ram, i think it is there.

    note: the manual is not specifically for the 5672WLMi..but for the whole family...so some things apply and some dont.

    Hi from Europe,
    guys, the TV antenna and video-in pictures are only for the Aspire 5650 series which has a GeForce and a TV tuner for Analog and Digital Terrestrial TV. There is also a video input but I don't know if this model will be sold in the USA because of the different TV standards.

    Cheers
