Reviews for the Acer Aspire 5532-5535
Source: CNet
At $329, the Acer Aspire AS5532-5535 is likely the cheapest laptop non-Netbook you'll find. In fact, this 15.6-inch laptop costs less than many Netbooks. And like those systems, it features a single-core CPU and low-end parts that make it best suited for light duty. The entry-level Acer Aspire AS5532-5535 can keep up with neither dual-core laptops that are still moderately priced nor a completing single-core entry-level laptop from Compaq.

ATI Radeon HD 3200: Onboard (shared Memory) graphics chip (on RS780M chipset) based on the HD 2400 graphics core. It also features the UVD video engine to decode HD videos. Beware: Under Windows XP the HD 3200 may have no 2D accelleration because of a driver problem.

15.6": 15 inch display-variants are the standard and are used for more than the half of all notebooks. 15.4 inch display with 16:10 are the standard for notebook displays. However nowadays, more and more 16:9 displays with 15.6 inch appear. The reason why so many people like displays with medium size is, that this size is not exhausting for the eyes, does not need too much energy and the laptops can be kept quite compact.» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.
2.6 kg: This notebook is lighter than the average of all notebooks. It is too heavy for sub-notebooks. 14 inch displays are normal for this class of weight.
