| flashfriday's Full Review: Acer TravelMate 341TV (91.AD129.001) PC Notebook |
I picked this great laptop up at Buy.com and it has not disappointed. Here's the features:
1. Intel® Pentium® III Processor 500 Mhz
2. 64MB SDRAM, expandable to 256MB
3. 256KB L2 cache memory
4. 6.0 GB Hard Drive
5. 12.1" TFT Screen
6. Integrated 10/100 ethernet RJ45 connection
7. Lithium Ion Battery
8. 128-bit AGP graphics accelerator with 2.5MB SGRAM Video Memory
9. Built-in Speakers
Positives: This laptop is extremely lightweight at only 4.1 pounds and delivers nice speed and performance. The 500 MHZ Pentium III processor makes this machine hum along nicely. It has not crashed on me yet. I was particularly impressed with the fact that it has 64 RAM. Most laptops in this price range usually only have 32 RAM. The 6 gigabyte hard drive is more than adequate for my needs. The graphics accelerator also performed quite well. The keyboard is responsive and my hands feel comfortable typing.
Negatives: The quality of the screen did not impress me. It looks decent, but I expected better resolution and clarity. I've also heard that Acer tech support is only average. Since I have not had to call them yet, I cannot verify this claim.
Final comment: All in all this is a great laptop for a great price. I no longer see the need for purchasing a separate desktop for home use. This computer does everything I need.
