I was extrememly surprised by the Acer Aspire 3000 laptop I purchased. Initially I was kinda let down however. After purchasing at Circuit City for $700 with a $150 rebate, I had the first computer for a week before icons started disappearing and it wouldn't boot properly. I tried to resolve this issue by running the restore disk. but it didn't want to accept it...so...after another week, I took the unit back to the store for a refund. After telling them that I hadn't registered the unit yet, they decided to just replace it with a new one and told me that the motherboard was no good(this was after inspection). I got the new onw home and have absolutely loved it. It is now going on 3 yrs old and it still is a great performer. I would highly recommend this computer to anyone on a budget or a student. Great buy!
