don't involve acer between DELL and sony.

VOSTRO seems to be for professional use & Inspiron and Vaio are eye-candies.

whats gotten into you is it bad if acer is giving you more for your money.

first compare the configs then curse a brand

^actually if you ask any person over here he will say no to ACeR. But as u r on low budget you can look over it as an alternative.

Because people often say when drunk " you press the keys hard and the keyboard slides out of acer like an ace's slide kick"
