Anyways, thinking of getting either this or maybe the Dell Studio 14z. Anyone have an Acer Timeline notebook (specifically the AS3810T variant)?
Their netbooks suck (most returned netbook by a long shot) and that Timeline laptop is FUCKING BRUTAL when it comes to performance. Slowest laptop I have on the computer wall out of the box by far.

Acer's support has also fallen through the floor, the one and only thing they had going for them. I refuse to recommend Acer under any circumstances these days.
