Acer Aspire TimelineX AS4820TG-6847
$799.99
Released December, 2010
The Pros:Pretty fairly priced for the specs. Features HDMI and VGA video outputs for compatibility with older and newer displays. Understated, elegant design looks great.
The Cons:1st generation i5 processor isn't as efficient or powerful as 2nd gen options. Keyboard doesn't provide the best tactile response, features a bit of flex. Display quality isn't up to par with competing laptops - colours looked washed out.
