MY First impressions first day:
.
A small Notebook, the size of a large hard cover book (dictionary come in to mind) Jet Shiny Black cover with a gray key pad area. The Store manager just took a minute to set it up and then explain to me on the soft ware that comes with it Vista Home Premium, and the Acer Soft ware especially the Acer Empowerment Technology. He further advice 8 hours initial charging time.
.
The notebook came without any CD’s due to it built in E Recovery (I will want to try it out say in a month time) which can restore it to its factory specs and software listed below in a small package weigh in at 2.04 kg (4.54 lbs.)
.
It came with a Padded Compartment Bag, a “Giant” Optical Mouse, and a adaptor powercord. There is a manual explaining the hardware and a bit on the acer software and a manual on vista. All very basic information while explaining what is new leave a lot hanging and unexplained.
.
I took it home and play around with it and started to set it up as i like it, firstly i uninstall the Anti virus (on trail), Acer Arcade , and the Windows Home and Student (on trail), replace with AVG and Open Office which I down load over the net.
.
Then i spent close to 10 hours downloading files from my old laptop via a 4g pen drive to the 2920.
.
Comments: it much faster, (then my old acer), and i enjoy using it setting it up and learning Vista Home Premium. A Sweet machine, better capability and able to accommodate my needs. Windows Vista need some getting use to, but i can see that it is a matter of unlearning XP, Vista I feel can be easier. Music is loud, and sound good to me, Playing a DVD, using the Windows Media Center is a breeze which also remember where i stop the disk last.
