Is your desk crammed full with all your different media bits and bats? Instead of letting your TV, stereo and games console compete for those last few inches of space, combine them into one with the Acer Aspire 5536.

The 5536 is the perfect entertainment hub, covering pretty much every base. Whether you’re a music mogul, a gaming god or a film fanatic the 5536 will step-up to the plate and keep you sorted.

For starters it packs a heck of a punch; driven by a powerful AMD Athlon 64 X2 processorand a massive 3GB RAM it’ll have no trouble juggling all your applications at once. Desperately need to de-tag those Facebook photos from last night whilst you’re downloading some new music? Have no fear, you’ll have it all sorted before anyone catches so much as a glimpse!

If you managed to avoid being caught on camera, and just want to sit back, relax and watch others who didn’t then you’re well catered for by the 5536. The crystal-clear 15.6” screen and the ATI Radeon HD 3200 graphics card will give you fantastic visuals whatever you choose to watch, but if you really want to create that cinematic experience you can hook the 5536 up to your big-screen TV using the HDMI port and enjoy some serious high-definition viewing.

You’ll have no problem storing those songs and videos either, because this laptop comes with a massive 500GB hard drive giving you more room than you’ll ever need. Talking of rooms, you’ll be able to show yours off to your mates online too, because the 5536 comes with an integrated webcam, and wireless technology.

This laptop is the consummate entertainer. Bust through your boredom now with the Acer Aspire 5536.

Question from Melvin Gunt: Asked on 12/10/2009 Is there any chance of playing either Counter Strike Source or Half Life 2 on this laptop if settings are low?

Answer from SteveK: Answered on 12/10/2009
If the setting are low you should be fine the graphics card is normally the stumbling block with these games but the ATI Radeon HD 3200 - with 256 MB should be fine. The only other thing I would recommend is a RAM upgrade 8Gb will be well worth the extra cost, if you play these games regularly.
