bad luck?
was very happy with it in all respects. actually bought it from e-buyer and returned it today for full refund due to the keyboard feezing after three weeks, apparently due to a hardare problem. now going to buy same acer aspire 5315 model from amazon as it happens to be £10 cheaper and I know amazon have a good customer service policy too.

For the price, you can't go wrong with this laptop.
I have owned this laptop for a year now. It's the best purchase in computing I have ever done.
It's sleek and feels very sturdy and nicely built, but not too small. The size of the screen is really good to watch movies and it's super clear too.I use it everywhere in my house thanks to the wi-fi connection to my broadband router.
It is very good value for money.
The only thing I'm disappointed about is not the laptop but having Windows Vista which makes it slower sometimes to run. I have had no problem what-so-ever with it, not like friends who have bought more expensive brands.
Will recommend fully for those of you who have a small budget!

Its ok
the Acer Aspire 5315 has been a good product up untill now. I have owned this computer from new for just under a year. it is now not allowing me to download programmes from the internet or from cd/dvd. it is only allowing me to save certain things, and it is not the memory space cos there is still lots there. also it has just started not recognising dvds, even the ones which i have previously played through my laptop.

if anyone has any ideas i would appreciate them

Not Bad Laptop
I bought this laptop because of it's low price and its boast of 80GB. Only to discover it's much lower so it got sent back but asked for a replacement. That came swiftly enough but it had the same max 64GB. Then on the same day, after installing just one programme, I was forced to use the restore to factory settings utility as the laptop simply would not shut down - even closing the lid did not help it turn off so I had to wait for the battery to wear itself out. Thankfully once it was restored everything so far has been plain sailing, (thank God), and now I can say it's a great little machine.

It's light and not bad looking. I do have a problem with the amount of software already on it - a little too much for my liking especially as many of them seem to be games and stuff many people probably already got or can easily get like the dvd facility. Then there are the trial versions of products like norton and office 2007 which I find very annoying because I know I can't afford them even if I wanted them but they suck you into using it, (if you're not careful), knowing it can be whisked away when the time is up. Uninstall them and download free avg and spybot for equally good security and buy 'Ability Office Business' for a cheaper alternative office software.

If you don't like Vista, (it could be the spec hungry demands of Vista when after installing that one programme caused the stalling at shut down who knows), loading up Ubuntu may be an anwser.

This product is great for lightweight ordinary things like emailing, office work etc. It is a great machine and if it wasn't for the initial problems I would had easily given it five stars.
