New Acer Aspire desktop PCs start at $449.99
Posted on June 21, 2010 | No Comments
What can I do to get you into a new Acer Aspire X3 or M3 Series PC? I can't go lower on price - my manager is already busing my stones about dropping the price down to $449.99 - but how about I throw in a "space-saving chassis" and mention they're an "appealing addition to a dorm, bedroom or home office." No? Still nothing?
Look, the X3 series is the high-end stuff, a good, strong machine. This M3, though has only been driven one-hundred and then thousand miles by somebody I know personally who changed the graphics cards regularly. You can get an Intel or AMD processor to go with your X series or a nice AMD processor for M3. You've heard bad things about foreign processors? Where? Consumer Reports? They lie. They lie all the time.
Can we go into my office, sit down, have some coffee? Talk this over? I think we can make a deal.

Gateway One ZX series gets Windows 7 and touchscreen features
Posted on October 7, 2009 | No Comments
My gut reaction to seeing these all-in-one computers is that they might make a nice addition to a dorm room or an aging couple’s den. But then Gateway goes and says something like this:
“The powerful One ZC6800 Series is a no-compromise, high-performance configuration entirely suitable for serious gaming.” I roll my eyes and then look for the actual specs, to find…

Posted on August 3, 2009 | 1 Comment
In the search for affordable 11.6-inch netbooks, you have a couple of enticing choices in the Acer Aspire One 751h and the Gateway LT3103.
