Overview

Acer TravelMate 4501WLMi

Editors rating
Rating: 7.9
Verdict

This is a fully featured desktop replacement notebook that's not too heavy to take on the road. It performs well, delivers impressive battery life and is reasonably priced.

Typical price

£ 859

Featured Talkback

Put simply, what is the compelling reason to pay ~$200 extra for an Eee with Windows XP? A Windows Eee won't come with any useful applications and you'll have to buy anti-virus software to boot. The truth about low cost computing is that nobody really cares whether the machine is running Windows or Linux as long as its cheap, its easy to use and it works.
