I urge you as strongly as I can NOT to buy this brand.
Acer does not stand behind their product.
My new laptop was faulty from the day I got it.
I have now had it a little over nine months.
The company has yet to fix it.
The laptop only works when plugged in . . . a big problem.
The company has replaced the battery twice (not counting the original battery) and sent a chord.
The problem is not solved.
Acer refuses to admit that I have a lemon.
The computer was sent back at one point and supposedly fixed--wrong.
It didn't hold a charge the day we got it back. The company "customer service" has told me that they do not need to give me a computer that works; they only need to keep trying to fix the defective one.
To work with "customer service" is an act of extreme frustration and futility.
Do not buy this company's products.
