there's a face above me I haven't seen in forever...
"Show me thy ways, O Lord; teach me thy paths. Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day." Psalm 25:4-5

"Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me; for I am desolate and afflicted.
The troubles of my heart are enlarged: O bring thou me out of my distresses.
Look upon mine affliction and my pain; and forgive all my sins.
Consider mine enemies; for they are many; and they hate me with cruel hatred.
O keep my soul, and deliver me: let me not be ashamed; for I put my trust in thee.
Let integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on thee.
Redeem Israel, O God, out of all his troubles." Psalm 25: 16-22

Desktop is out of the question, though I wish it was a option. For ~$600, I could put together a much better desktop...sigh....
From what I've read in the reviews, they say that the build quality is decent, although not extremly rugged. I tend to take good care of my computers, so it would seem like it would be fine.

I dont tend to take reviews seriously due to
1. They may have hidden motives for saying what they do.
2. They dont know everything, and they review products quickly after that they receive them.
3. I dont agree with them.
4. Many youtubers never motivate claims, especially not scientifically, they just say - this is good, this is bad etc.

Heres what I expect from an acer laptop:
It will be made entirely from a cheap blend of plastic, and you wont be able to open the chassi without breaking plastic parts. The laptop is assembled by people with a low wage. The plastic will not isolate sound coming from the inside of the laptop. You can forget about having good speakers, you may get ok sound by using headphones though.

It will run decently for the first 6 months, then coil whine and fan noise will start to increase, after 1 year of use you will want to buy a new laptop due to high fan noise, screen looking turbid and coil whine.

I may be wrong ofcourse.


Conclusion: the price per year will be $600 for the acer laptop, while a quality computer costing say $850 working for 3 years will cost $283 a year.

Actually, I've reconsidered what would be good to buy, and I'm thinking about a MSI GL62. Should be good for the price.

No, unless you revel in knowing the model numbers of the last few years of gaming laptops. I'd not be surprised if you didn't know what MSI was.

Okay. My brother would probably know what you were talking about, though. He has a solid grid on I.T knowledge.

Actually, the model I was looking at was the Q6F. The one with the quad-core i5 and 8gb ram. I just bought one for $650

Hmmmm....
Internet here has been rather limited. Doesn't like to load anything....Sigh....
The most annoying part of it is the fact that if you can get a steady connection, you can get 80KB/sec down. But at the same time, your gmail will never load.

Gigabit internet, eh? The best advantage for that fast is streaming/many users or if you just want to never have any latency due to usage. I assume that it's via fiber?
