I'm replacing my aging desktop + laptop, and decided on this. I think it's great bang for my buck compared to the Macbooks I was looking at before.

Windows Vista Home Premium
Intel Core 2 Duo T6500 (2.1GHz)
4GB DDR2 800 MHz
320GB 7200RPM
NVIDIA GeForce GT 220M

EDIT: There's also this - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16834115592

Windows Vista Home Premium 64 Bit
Intel Core 2 Duo T6500 (2.1GHz)
4GB DDR3 1066 MHz
250GB 7200RPM
NVIDIA GeForce GT 130M

There isn't much information on the GT 220M compared to the GT 130M, so I can't really compare if the extra $50 is worth it for the Asus even though it has DDR2 compared to DDR3 RAM in the Acer. However, I've had great experiences with Acer products (the laptop I have now is an Acer, as well as all the monitors in my house). So I'm leaning towards that. What do you guys think?
