the screen does NOT flicker it gets brighter and dimmer its a setting in the power managment section it is trying to save you power just go in and change that setting and it will fix that
I suspect it does not flicker on every machine they have sold but it did on mine. Power management changing brightness is irrelevant. Acer have had this issue on other laptops as well.
@netbooked i would for sure call them about that and demand a free repair....
just to let you know its super hard to talk to them they want you to email them but just find the number and press 0 like 30 times they should then transfer you
Nice review so this pc is great very cheap but I was wondering does the core 2 duo su7300. Can play 1080p YouTube videos???? Cause you said that the su9400 could but you did not mentioned the other dual core model
We have similar model Timeline 3810T... I'm wondering how's your battery life running Win7? I've read so many conflicting articles about getting less batt life on Win7 than on the original Vista Premium. I want to install Win7, but hesitant until I can be sure the batt life will stay the same. Thanks.
So four cons are 1. slight flickering of the display 2. screen angle could be more open 3. multi-touch touch pad is not fully functional 4. can not play YT HD videos
best amateur review ive seen, good pov, camera and audio great, youre taking your time, you have some valid points and its not all rushed with all techincal details.only thing missing is actual price/performance vs simular options.
btw, hows it with you?
i really like the look and the size of it, LED, ddr3, i just wonder if im able to fit a 1066 cpu in it. and would you bought the 13" over again or would you go with a sligthly bigger screen? cheers.
Thanks. You can't change the CPU. I don't have any real preference for size. If I were to get another 13-incher, I'd definitely go for more power.. at least something that can play youtube videos smoothly in HD mode.

Acer touchpad button is horrid. I don't know why so many manufacturers make the buttons that are so hard to click.

Upgrade to Adobe Flash Player 10.1. The GMA 4500MHD is already supported, and you now CAN play HD videos in youtube. :)

@peterjaena This review was done well before flash 10.1 was released :) but thanks for pointing that out for whoever is reading.

I suggest you skip all the pausing and bullshit and get right into the meat. I'd say you could've given the same review in 2:45.
