Acer Travelmate 6292-102G16N

To begin at the overall picture: A highly mobile, robust laptop with a full feature set. He is now a month or else half in my possession and I am extremely happy with it. Apart from some vista-oddities, everything at full speed, and I am extremely pleased. 's feature set for a laptop of such enormous size. The plug and play connections present on the travelmate are: 3x USB2.0, 1x Firewire 400. At the back is a video-out and D-sub connection available. Also, the laptop computer equipped with all sorts of connectivity options. A modem, Gigabit Ethernet, Infrared, Bluetooth, WiFi (a / b / g / draft-N). In terms of multimedia, the device has a 5 in 1 Card reader, a DVD-RW drive and of course the default number of connections for audio (line in, line out, microphone). There's even the 12.1 "screen, a webcam heuzé processes including microphone. If you miss something in all this most beautiful you can add it through the PCMCIA socket. terms of performance, he does not know its price / quality level in this format. With its Core 2 Duo T7100, 2GB DDR2 memory, 160GB hard drive and Intel's GMA X3100 system running as vista like a charm with all its graphical fuss. Possible addition of Vista's ReadyBoost technology is nothing of note, but is also totally unnecessary with so much memory. About the picture quality of this screen is not a single thing wrong to say. I myself am in favor of the matte screens (of which I glare screens are not happy), so I was extremely happy. Yet another reason for satisfaction was that this screen can handle. resolution of 1280x800 with its diagonal of 12.1 " This screen looks very sharp and fit there is still a lot. The color is bright and there is plenty of contrast. When the power saver mode, the screen is less clear and there is really only good to work in the dark. Of course, in full sunlight all difficult to get a clear picture. With the robustness is it good in terms of materials. The casing on the screen side of the laptop has a magnesium alloy. One drawback of the laptop I find that there is no lock on the silver screen. That was me, not to be missing on a laptop in the mobile circuit. The keyboard has a solid attack and makes a distinctive touch laptop in the attack. On the side of it are a number of useful keyboard shortcuts. This is Wifi & Bluetooth fingertips (inc. status lights). Also, the browser and client take this reach. Ergonomics, partly discussed in the paragraph above is fine. The touchpad is easy to switch through Fn + F7 out (at first thought the thing was kapopt but turned off to stand). The fingerprint reader is conveniently located below the touchpad. The short dabs here and there were some getting used to. But I think that is it the case with all of the steps of keyboard. Furthermore, no defect at this point. The laptop does produce some noise. With some music that is inaudible. When working in complete silence can be heard. Soft, monotonous fannetje No high-pitched fan speeds and sudden bursts, but acceptable sound. The laptop is a bit warmer when you work with it more, but not unpleasantly hot. terms of mobility. A day-long work with the standard battery does not reach. I am always looking for an outlet in the lecture hall at (student as I am). My second train traveling on a day of a total of 2.5 hours to do so on one full charge on the high performance mode. On power saver, he'll still hold out a little longer. Also, a balanced booth. Well there is a 9-cell additional battery available. This will make it possible to get through the day, with the laptop. As previously said. The price compared to other 12.1 "notebooks already very low. Features that travelmate still offers unprecedented. A mac-book can not keep up. A good buy for SMEs such as acer which pretends itself.
