    Yeah so I just purchased my ACER 8104 and recieved it yesterday. I have updated everything and installed all of the drivers. I install hl2/source and all I can say is WOW. avg. 80-100 fps all settings maxed out and on HIGH. Delta Force Black Hawk Down/Team Saber: everything on HIGH=perfection smooth as butter and lag free multiplayer play (with comcast cable). I definatly recomend this notebook 4 EVERYONE!!! it has the power to game superbly, yet has the mobility and thin-ness of a true mobile platform the battery life is wickedly long and this things over all power owns all in its class def. worth it.
    CHEAPEST GAMING LAPTOP 4 THE MONEY!!!!!!
    * One question.....Has anyone played BF2 on this machine/or a machine with similar specs and if so did it run relatively well or not, I dont want to buy this game if it wont perform well with my laptop because it would be no fun at all with s h i t t y graphics/gameplay. thx!!
