First the negatives: 

The Acer 3680-2682 had the misfortune of a poor selection of Vista being installed on it.  There simply is not enough memory to perform such a task. The processor speed test I performed (found on Linux distros) checked in slow for this device as well.  The last negative is...

My husband and I bought matching Acer Aspire 368-2682 laptops in October 2007. I am on mine now, typing this. They have been good, durable computers, and can do all of the basic computing one would need. Just about anyone wanting to surf the net, email or chat, would really enjoy this laptop.

There are a few drawbacks to this computer:

They are a bit limited in the graphics area, and can't run very many "graphic intense" games.

They are lacking enough memory to run some of the functions of even BASIC programs, (so we installed a memory upgrade).

There seems to be a "glitch" in the internet connection....

Hi, I owned an Acer Aspire 3680 Laptop for about 2 years before it completely failed on me. It cost around 600-700 dollars, and you definately don't get your money's worth. The memory practically eats itself up in about a month, so you always have to keep cleaning everything out. If you want to buy this laptop, I reccomend getting a memory upgrade if you plan on using it as a primary computer. The internet connection on it is very faulty, and it crashes on you all the time, it's very glitchy. Windows Vista Home Basic comes pre-installed, as well as Norton and all that. It's a durable enough laptop.... read full review »

Uhm. I Have To Write This Review TWICE. Becuase The Other Window Internet Explorer WASN'T RESPONDING. So I Couldn't Finish.  Unlike My Other Review I Can't Ever Finish Im Going To Make This One A Little Smaller. So I Got This Acer Aspire 3680 When I Was 13..To This Day I Hate It. Im Am 15 & A Chick That Rocks At Computers. I Do Graphic Designing, Photo Shops, Animations, & A Wiz With Computers. I Can't Do These Things Easily & With Satisfaction With This Laptop. It Easily Freezez Up. Memory Not Enough ...Well Very Very Low. Well...It Is Cheap But It's Pretty Cheap  To Makes You Think..."

I have had this laptop for three years now and have had nothing but problems with it. It keep coming up with an error about system malfunctioning or data system not working and when getiing on the internet I keep having to reboot the computer and trying to get on the internet again. Sometime the computer will freeze up all I get from that is a white screen.. I have problems with the keyboard too geting too hot or when using the numbers they don't work half the time or they go backwards for example if I want say: (1234) if show up as (4321). The battery when unplug only last for about 10 minutes...

I bought the Acer Aspire 3680 a couple of years ago.  I wanted a laptop at the time and did not want to spend a lot of money to spend, so I bought this one for a pretty cheap price.  It did not come with anything fancy.  It is just your basic laptop without a lot of memory or cool features.  It does not come in any different colors or patterns, but I was not looking for any of those things.  I just wanted a basic computer that would perform basic jobs.  It did work fine for a few months, but that was about it.  After the first few months the Acer laptop moved so slowly it was practically...

I opened my new Acer Aspire laptop over the weekend and I am VERY happy with it.  There was no software to upload, no discs to put in and take out, etc, before it started "working."  I took it out of the box, plugged it in overnight, and the next morning it was ready to go!

All I had to do was put a few icons on the desktop - my email, etc, - and it took off like a rocket.

This laptop is super light, super thin, and a lovely pale gray.  I know the color has no connection, but it does to me!  Best of all, the battery will last for EIGHT HOURS!  And did I mention that it has 4 gigs of memory?...

I bought this computer from Walmart. It is great. It really is not suitable for Vista. My whole plan with it was to switch to Linux, which I did. I installed Ubuntu and it works great.

This laptop has been very tough. I have dropped it and nothing has happened.

The best part of this laptop was its price. It only cost me $300 at Walmart when it was on sale.

Sweet Action!
