its here! my free Acer Timeline courtesy of Singtel. got this for recontracting with singnet at its 10MBps broadband. its been awhile since singtel came up with free lappies promotion. good thing my contract was 21mths old and it came so timely since my compaq is about to give way anytimw (thks lokz for your "compliments" to my old comp, thks huh!)
anyway, apparently its the lightest notebook (yes, not netbook) as boasted by Acer. i'm not really a fan of Acer but who cares since its free. overall it was a good deal coz aft calculation, i'm paying only a mere $792 for the notebook. lol~ its really light weighing at 1.9kg with the batt and 1.6kg w/o. hopefully, it will "live" for a year b4 i move to proli a Mac (high time).
the specs aren't that fantastic and for me the shortfalls mainly will be no dedicated graphics card which is impt to notebooks and no disc drive. proli heading to sim lim soon to upgrade it to 4GB ram anything. now kinda broke. lol~
