Question from antony hellewell: Asked on 26/07/2007 how important is it to upgrade from 1 to 2 gb for vista on this model

Answer from Easycom: Answered on 31/07/2007
Increasing the system memory makes the notebook faster while handling large files and more responsive in general use. For Vista Premium laptops I would suggest either 1GB of system ram with dedicated graphics or 2GB of RAM with shared graphics.

Question from wardy: Asked on 24/07/2007 hi, i've been looking at the aspire 5101 and this 9301 but i can't decided which is better and which to purchase.

Answer from Easycom: Answered on 25/07/2007
The Aspire 9301 has a 17 inch screen rather than the smaller 15 inch screen on the Aspire 5101 so I would suggest going for the screen that best suits you.

Question from Martin: Asked on 18/04/2007 Do you get a Vista installation disk in case I need to format or change the HDD?

Restore data comes on a separate partition on the hard drive, and you can easily burn your own recovery disc from that if you want to change the hard drive.

Question from Simon: Asked on 18/04/2007 Is it possible to add a seperate dedicated graphics card instead of using the shared one? IE using a ATi Mobility card.

Not in a laptop unfortunately, there is no physical slot inside as there isnt room. All mobile graphics chips in laptops (dedicated or integrated) are soldered onto the motherboard by the manufacturers.

Question from Guildford: Asked on 15/04/2007 I'm thinking of getting this laptop but i'm finding it difficult to choose between this and the Acer Aspire 5633WLMi - LX.AU30J.090 that runs the core 2 duo. Which is better.

Answer from Easycom: Answered on 17/04/2007
The 5633WLMi will off you slightly more performance and a longer battery life, however it does not come with the 17 inch screen. So best bet is to choose depending what screen you want either 17 or 15.4 inch.

Question from Gerry: Asked on 27/03/2007 Does the 'Ultra Shiny Screen' pose reflection problems ?

Answer from Easycom: Answered on 27/03/2007
Its glassy surface is just like that of a CRT monitor. If you were sat near a window in bright sunlight you'd probably be able to see your reflection in it, just like you would with a CRT. The extra brightness and vibrancy of the image more than make up for it though.
