Fantastic Ultra Portable Laptop!,
I never dreamed that I would ever buy an Acer computer. I always thought of them as being low end budget computers. Boy was I incorrect! The Acer Aspire Timelinex AS1830T-6651 is the perfect small powerhouse. I wasn’t satisfied with the thought of purchasing a Netbook of any flavor. I wanted a full computer. I wanted decent battery life, large hard drive, lots of RAM and a decent speed processor. I did my research (I’ve been a computer tech for 28 years)–lots of research. This was not an impulse buy. I looked at every ultra portable on the market. Every other laptop with similar specs was twice the price. None had the battery life. It doesn’t have a gamer’s graphics card, but I’m not a heavy gamer and knew that going into it, but playing back a movie was perfect. I read one review that said the speakers weren’t very loud and didn’t work very well on an airplane. Excuse me? Who would listen to music or watch a movie on a plane with the speaker? That is what headphones are for. I found the volume was on the low side, but adequate for my uses. If I know I will need more, I’ll pick up some small speakers.
I have had the laptop for over a month now and my opinion has not lessened at all. The battery life is nearly unbelievable. I typically get about 6 to 7 hours and I don’t use a lot of the battery saving features either. If I did I would get even more. Even though the case is plastic, I find that it has a excellent solid feel. It doesn’t feel cheap at all, unless you are comparing it to the more expensive Sony or a MacBook Air. I am certainly satisfied.
Pros: Size, price, keyboard size, expandability, RAM and hard drive size, upgradeable RAM and hard drive, light weight, fantastic battery life, features.
Cons: Slow hard drive (5400rpm – adequate, but quicker would have been nice)
I highly recommend this laptop for anyone wanting the portability of a netbook but with the power of an upper mid-range laptop.

|A fantastic laptop,
This is a very solid small laptop with a lot packed in. The 4GB RAM really helps with photo and video editing, and the 500 GB disk can hold a lot of images. I especially appreciate the very large keys and decent spacing between the keys – it’s one of the most comfortable keyboards I’ve ever used on a laptop.
It has a excellent feel to it – light but still very study. The only objection I have is that the product description here says “Housed in premium, black brushed aluminum”, which I really wanted. But, it’s really just plastic with a black-brushed aluminum-like end. Disappointing, but not a deal breaker.
Overall it performs exactly as the specs say – the battery life is outstanding. I’ll be carrying around this baby for quite a while.

|Perfect ultraportable,
After receiving the computer and playing with it for approximately 3 hours, I feel comfortable giving it five stars.
Pros:
Very quick (multitasking and installing programs)
Very lightweight
Battery life seems to be about 5-6 hours
Touchpad and keyboard are decent coming from a EEEPC netbook
Screen is clear and vivid
Many nice features: bluetooth, 802.11n, hdmi+vga, webcam
Cons:
None that I can find
Overall, I reckon this computer is the best combination of price and performance out there for an ultraportable and I would recommend it.
