Acer V's HP
I am buying a new laptop and considering 2 options:
Either a 16" Acer widescreen TFT with 4G RAM, Intel Core 2 Duo T5750 / 2 GHz, a 250 GB - Serial ATA hard disk, NVIDIA GeForce 9500M GS TurboCache with GDDR2 SDRAM - 512 MB of Video Memory. It also has a blue ray drive.
Or... A 17" HP model with similar specs.
Could anyone with any experience of either brands enlighten me on potential pitfalls.
The other option is Lenovo, but they seem more expensive and do not seem to have the same spec levels.

Both HP and Acer have most of their stuff made by Quanta, Compal and Wistron, so the build qualities are likely to be similar, don't know about the quality of design or support.

DO NOT confuse manufacturing and design !
Apple have 99.99% of their stuff assembled in China, but the design, build quality and reliability of their kit far exceeds the
that comes off the same production lines !
With proper QA procedures, a manufacturer can have their kit assembled anywhere and be assured that it's coming off the line just as they would like it to.
