Reviews for the Acer Aspire 5534
Source: PC Mag

When it comes down to their laptops, Acer has vowed to cut down their bulk, extend their battery life, and sell them at prices few can match. Case in point: the Acer Aspire AS5534-1146 ($499 list), which comes with Microsoft Windows 7 Premium 64-bit. First off, this is definitely not a netbook, which its $499 price might lead you to assume. If you can put aside any lofty expectations, the Acer Aspire AS5534-1146 is an incredible bargain for a well-designed laptop.

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.
Only some 3D games with very low demands are playable with these cards.
