I know I made a topic a while ago that said that a family friend is giving me a laptop since I helped him with computer problem. Now he decides to spring on a, "I'll let you have a laptop for free between these two". So... which is better?

An Acer Aspire 1300 with AMD Athlon XP 1500+
or
A Compaq 610c with Pentium 4?

Don't know how fast they both are. Both have 256mb RAM. Acer has a CD-rewriter built in. Compaq doesn't. Compaq has 30gb hard drive, Acer only has 20.

Listen, I'm typing with my Aspire right now... Yeah the Acer one.
I got one of the best Aspires in the market.
It has good parts, and the specs say it's good.
But it works like shit. I've had alot of acers before.
They were all aspires.
They all had issues.
I can't even play Club Penguin with my aspire 5536G .
Never get an acer.

The uncle of one of my friends is in charge of Acer in Thailand and the UK...my friend told him that they were a piece of crap, and his uncle shrugged and said that he didn't care, they were quite cheap

  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
