Acer Aspire 5672WLMI

I maybe new here but dont under-estimate that.
Well I have decided to give you all a review on this laptop including pictures.
First review but hope you think its good

Acer Aspire 5672WLMI review:
Well after 3 days of waiting for this beast, it came (after they found us :P we needed to tell them where to go) I can just say it was agony waiting for this baby!
Ok so i got it out of its box and there it was neatly packed. So i carefully got it out of its box and laid it on the table. I admired it then i pressed the on button.
I kept clicking it and nothing hapened so i started to get worried. I turned it over and :O no battery so i look in the box and there it is . So i put it in and it powered up with 80% battery life it went throught the proccess of setting up home etc.... It then loaded up and started to instal loads of drivers. It restarted and then it started installing acers programs. I just moved that to the top corner tottal out of sight and started playing with it. I couldnt belive how fast it was. I went and got my NFS-MW cd and installed it. I had it on medium settings and it was struglining a bit and i went to investigate. I went to ATI Catalyst center and then went down too "POWERLAY" and there it was "POWERPLAY enabled". "On high battery: "Optimal Battery life" and that was for everything. unticked enable POWERPLAY went back to game put it on full and no lag whatsover but it was n't widescreen so i updated drivers and its now widescreen and it plays highest settings with no lag. I was overjoyed. I went to install all my other programs e.g: Utorrent, mIRC, WLM, etc.... I then went to fiddle with acers stuff. I was suprised on how good it was. Its not really crap! the esecurity is though
I love the webcam maybe cos im 13 and i like being childish . It has this really cool thing called Visageon and it changes you into a animal and stuff and it follows your actions. Im also very surpised by the quality it rocks, I went on WLM to test it and they all said it had great quality. I thought it was one of those cheappy con things but it isnt
The memory card reader is very good, you put in the card withing 1-2 secs it will pop up asking you what to do, very fast
They keyboard takes some time to get used too but im getting there, it isnt as responsive as my desktop one, it will occasionally miss out letters. So i just press them slightly harder and its fine. The butons in the top right hand corner are really useful. I like the software for it especially. I love the idea of being able to set a website for email and stuff its a really good feature!
The Battery lf is approx 2:55 hours, the style of it with the shiny black gets fingerptins very easily as you can see in the phto but you dont really notice them untill theres a very bright light on it!
The sound is tinny, but as my dad knowing lots and lots about hi-fi i went into the Realtek equalizer and he has done it so it has more bass (Thanks dad!). Problem is that it is very quiet which you can put up with, but hey its a laptop!
The jacks at the front are good the headphone one again doesnt throw out loudness but it throws out decent quality!
The touchpad on it is good but too sensitive in push wise when your moving it it highlights stuff and it gets quite annyoing, but you get used to not pushing so hard. The left and right buttons are loud if you press them furthest away from the touchpad but they closer you get the quiter they are
What I found wierd was that it doesnt have a button (using Fn) to get on screen battery life
The buttons at the front are good but people without nails you have to push that little bit harder.
The screen quality is amazing, its clear bright and very responsive.
One of the first things i did was chage it too NTFS using PartitionMagic and it did it no problem.
The slot-in dvd drive is great its really cool, it makes a bit of noise mind but it works fine.
The wireless and bluetooth are all good and have good signal. Its not noisy at all tbh and the LAN connector is really good cos our wireless plays up.
There seems to be a problem: when my network cable pops out I have to disable the adapeter then enable it too connect to it again :/

The graphics card is good, and with ATITOOL you can overclock it. It pleases me with graphics in games!
Thats all I can really think of.

2 more things,
Everyone says these things get overley hot, they don't even you put them under a pllow then yes they do. But I have had mine on sisnce yesterday and its averaged at 49% (CPU).
And then you have to have this theme screenshots Here also at the bottom is where you can install it.

Conclusion: Very very good laptop would reccomend it too anyone. Its almost perfect. It has a much better gpu then my desktop (nVidia 6200LE) and its faster (3.0ghz P4) so its better in every way.

Note: I have the 2gb, 120gb sata..... version.

Hope you like my review its my first
