3. Beautiful and nice keyboard layout, different from the previous acer notebook.
4. Dolby Digital Live Speakers.

    That is what you hear, did you experience it by yourself? No matter which brand you going to buy, you must think twice. How’s the quality of a notebook, is depand on the classes of notebook company produce, Acer producing more low end notebooks and only several high end notebooks. So, if you get a High End notebook which cost you RM 8000, I can tell u exactly, acer notebook is the best one among all.
