  • can u play world of warcraft!

  • Apparently you can, with decent framerate at a low 800 x 600-pixel resolution.

  • can u get windows vista with this?????

  • I don't know of anyone selling it with Vista installed, but you can run Vista on it, and amazingly, it will run the Mac OS Leopard too.

  • can u play games like ths sims3 on it???

  • These are the minimum system requirements for the Sims 3 for a laptop:

    XP Service Pack 2

    Processor: Pentium IV 2.0 GHz / Athlon

    Memory: 1.5 GB

    GeForce Go 6200 / Radeon mobile 9600

    Graphics RAM: 128 MB

    The problem you might encounter is at the graphics card level. The Acer has a built-in GMA 950, which might play the game, but at a very poor quality.

  • @cedriclovesaaron my brother got a netbook worse than this and it runs itunes just fine...along with counterstrike and all kinds of things, his is an HP

  • I had a problem with mine called customer support to help with removing a virus the geek from India told me 100.00 but I first told their would be no charge go figure lets nuke India !!!

  • how do you take videos on it

    

  • How old is this video?

  • what's the diference between a netbook and a notebook?

  • can u download Itunes? music and movies from itunes?

  • After over 3 hours they were unable to resolve the matter and told me that there was nothing further that they could do. I filed a claim for a refund on the technical support and was (VERY RUDELY I MIGHT ADD by "Orville badge #GWSS116") denied. I'm really not sure which is worse, the customer support or the product. After my experiences not only would I not recommend purchase, I would strongly advise against it. I hope this review helps someone before they make the same mistakes that I did.

  • After I exchanged the laptop for another computer I came to face with the same problem, I was assured that if I purchased the support that a technition would be able to resolve the matter.

  • I bought an Acer netbook last week, could get wireless connection but was unable to surf the web. I called customer support and they insisted that I would have to purchase technical support which would essentially cost another $200.

    I decided to take the computer(my fathers christmas gift) back to try another one because the additional $200 was over my budget.

  • @Mrscliffie - thanks... yeh- I tried that & I even put the shortcut on my desktop...but- it won't allow me to just start capturing a video... much less save it to my video file- it only wants to take a pic.... I went to my moviemaker & found a way to capture video- but it still won't let me save it or send it off to anyone.
