The Ashes

The Acer Aspire AX1700-U3700A features an Intel Dual Core 2.4Ghz CPU, 4GB of DDR2 RAM, 640GB HDD, DVD-RW, 2 HDMI ports, 1 DVI port, and comes bundled with Vista Home Premium. It’s advantage is that it’s looking real good and compact, features a plethora of USB ports, is quiet, cheap, especially compared to larger desktops.

Unfortunately, it takes a while to boot Windows, though this doesn’t seem to be such a big turnoff. It can handle multitasking pretty well and it can prove useful in a lot of situation for a desktop at it’s price.

The Acer Aspire AX1700-U3700A comes with the following software: Acer® Arcade Live, Acer® Empowering Technology, Adobe® Acrobat® Reader, eSobi™ (OEM, not full-featured, version), Microsoft® Works 8.5 (full version), Microsoft® Office Home & Student 2007 (60-day trial), McAfee® Internet Security Suite (trial version), and NTI Media Maker™ (OEM, not full-featured, version).
