Forgot to mention them above. //Staffan You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

They have very good customer service. ACER in my opinion is low quality. But, for 1000$ you can think of lenovo thinkpad t500 with 4 gb. It comes around 950 bucks. But, the life of these laptops from battery to everything else is uncomparable. They just seem to last forever, they usually are phased out only because of higher software requirements.If you stick to a particular OS then these are the laptops to have.
