Customer Rating:      Summary: a brilliant bargain Comment: Just received this a few days ago, so still testing out. Impressions so far is that this model is great value for money. I am not very technically minded (to say the least) and I found it incredibly easy to set up). The screen is a great size, the speed when connected to the net, is also very impressive. The colours displayed are phenominal. It is more lightweight than some other 17 inch models I have viewed. It does all that is necessary.
MINUSES: It could have a more sylish keyboard/fascia, but is that really important?? having a little problem with sticky keys at present. may be due to the layout of the keyboard and the speed I type at so the jury is still out whether I need to have it seen to, At present the sound isnt very loud despite the super woofer etc., but this could well be due to my incompetance and I am awaiting my sonss expertise. the inbuit keypad is well designed and slick - this computer could come with more useful programmes and fewer that are not needed (and I have yet to learn what they are for!) and would have been great to have word/office but I believe that most models only have them on trial basis !
If you want a good basic model to surf the net on, with a good large screen to view then buy this one you wont be dissappointed especially with the price tag! I also purchased the extended warranty that comes with a bag and mouse - 3 years worry free for £47 a true bargain especially since it is collect and return!!!
If you are more into watching dvds/playing games await my verdict on the sound system (I will post again once looked at by an expert which I am not!)
Otherwise I would highly recommend. I looked around for ages and truly feel I made the right choice at the right price.
By the way I opted for the "slower" free delivery - I was lucky and received this item within 4 days which I felt was really impressive. Amazon is a great retailer to deal with. Good luck!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Excellent laptop Comment: I bought this laptop for my daughter a short time ago. We are both delighted with it. Very well built, very good to look at, easily set up, instant connection to our wireless router, no problems with Vista, and also some useful Acer laptop management software too. Big hard disk, nice wide screen. Excellent value for money. The machine just went beautifully straight out of the box. What more could you ask for at this price?
Customer Rating:      Summary: Hi Comment: Could someone please write a full length review because i've looked over the internet and i can't find one. Does this have a built in mic?
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great Laptop for the price Comment: After agonising over which Laptop to buy, after the demise of my PC, I chose the ACER 7720Z on price and spec. I preferred Amazon to Acer Direct based on my past experience of Amazon and I wasn't dissapointed.I paid for next day delivery to my place of work and sure enough it arrived before 10:00 am the next day.Also purchased a Belkin router which arrived as promised also.Although new to Vista and wireless - set-up was easy and sorted first time.I'm delighted with the service from Amazon and the product is great. Multi-tasking is a breeze and I can now listen to music, dart around Google Earth and have other applications open all at the same time - not unique but a quantum leap for me.Look and feel of the laptop is robust (should be at 3.4kg), a great screen and reasonable sound. The unique ACER features are good with quick views of performance status, power supply status etc. All in all a good product and compares well with similar units at £500.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Very happy Comment: I bought this laptop through Amazon, it arrived only yesterday 23rd Feb 08, so I am only reporting on initial impressions. I found it very easy to set up, especially connecting to my wireless network which it connected too without any input from me. The screen is amazing and it is also quite light for such a big Laptop. My last laptop was a 15" Dell which I bought in 2001 and that was much heavier. I've had a play with the loaded software and various features and it all seems very impressive. I had spent some time deliberating over buying this model and am now very pleased that I did. The only reason I havent given it a 5 star rating is because I've had it for such a short time and can't access durability etc. There is minimal manual support, everything as seems to be the norm now is pre-loaded and accessed either on the computer or online.
