Hi guys
so been looking for an ultra portable laptop and come across this one
Acer Aspire TimelineX 3820TZ
just went to see it at local shop here and looks pretty good, was way thinner then i was expecting. It ticks all the boxes but my only concern about it is will it stream HD files? mainly 720p and some 1080p mkv's from my NAS drive.
i would have liked it to have dedicated gfx card, but how does the GMA X4500HD cope with HD? has it got hardware acceleration like the ion?
the price is £399 with 2 years warranty
is there anything better i could get for the price? i don't intend to game on it, just surf, emails, watch films, maybe a bit of office bit nothing too heavy.
many thanks!
