Looking to buy a new laptop for home use. Mainly for internet, some word processing, music, digital photos and editing. Have had 2 second hand laptops in the last three years that have died on me (an IBM and Compaq) so not impressed with them.
Have found this acer laptop - can you tell me if its any good. If not, what sort of spec should I be looking for??
