Heh, the laptop I'm using right now is hot garbage. But it functions well enough for browsing the web. Of course, I'd rather keep my gaming tower offline, just easier that way.Originally Posted by Inferno.
We've got an Acer laptop we've now had since 2008, it's still running perfectly. I put that down to its specs being shite. Celeron single core, 1GB RAM, 80GB HDD. My parents are still using it daily to browse the Internet.
I also had an Acer Aspire 5535 where the GPU/motherboard died after about a year. Turned it off one night, went to put it on the next day and nothing on the screen, and nothing through an external VGA monitor. Poop.
And yeah sometimes you get a good one. EMachines was a pos brand and there was even a lawsuit because they were designed to break down but I have an ancient tower from them that still runs. Crazy really.
Lots of sales.
