Acer Aspire L3000 Series

[fernandose]

Hey,
Im after a small, thin, budget priced desktop pc. It doesn't need to be top of the range but performs basic operations (word processing, Internet browsing, multi-tasking) well.

A good core2duo processor with at least 1gig of ram and a small form factor case/build would be ideal.

After searching for many hours I have found that Acer Aspire 3000 series, in particular L3600, suits the job very much. But after many reading many reviews, it has given me mixed thoughts, some are claiming that it is a very good product while other claim that is fails in one way or another after some months of usage.

There are plenty going around ebay ranging from £260-£360.

Spec:

Product Description: Acer Aspire L3600 - Core 2 Duo E4500 2.2 GHz - 19" TFT

· Type: Personal computer

· Form Factor: Ultra small form factor

· Dimensions (WxDxH): 6 cm x 20 cm x 25 cm

· Localisation: United Kingdom

· Processor: 1 x Intel Core 2 Duo E4500 / 2.2 GHz ( Dual-Core )

· Storage Controller: Serial ATA ( Serial ATA-300 )

Any care to give me their opinion?

Thanks
