I haven't updated this blog in quite a while! I have been pretty busy with life, however I am now in the market for a budget 17" laptop after using a 17" Toshiba laptop while on vacation (and because I am going to be moving across the country in the upcoming weeks). After a lot of browsing, I discovered that Newegg has a 17" laptop with 3gb of RAM for $599. Besides the fact that this budget laptop has a 17" LCD, 3gb of memory and a 250gb HD, what's really amazing is the specifications list a battery life of three hours. I don't know if that is a typo, but I am really excited.
I can't find any reviews on the 'net of theAcer Extensa EX7620-4641, but its really hard to find a 17" laptop for under $800, so I bought one from NewEgg. If you are interested in buying the laptop from NewEgg, be sure to goto Microsoft Live Cashback search (Google it), so you can save 3-5% off your purchase. I did this and was able to save some money from my purchase.
Hopefully I will be able to post a review of the Extensa when I get it next week.
