Reviews for the Acer TravelMate 2423WXMi
Source: Ciao.com
Since purchasing a travelmate in Singapore almost six years ago I have loved this model. It served me well through university and when I left I bought this new model 2423. They have both been so reliable. Never faulting, always faster than you! They are great machines, built to last! This is acer's best selling notebook and it is easy to see why. With a 2.5 hour battery life and a slimline chassis, this laptop weighs in at only 2.5 Kgs, all at a great value.

Intel Celeron M: It is a Pentium M with halved level 2 Cache and limited on FSB 400. The characteristic of this processor is the speed, which is hardly slower than an equivalent Pentium M. However it can change the speed not dynamically like the Pentium M and therefore needs without load more current.
It is also available as Low Voltage Version with very small current consumption.

14.1": 14 inch display size is a mixture between the small formats of subnotebooks and the 15 inch standard display. 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.
2.4 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.
