I'm actually going to pick up one of these laptops tomorrow, and I'll
therefore be able to give you firsthand experience. Otherwise, it's
said to be okay for games: http://ca.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20100624233647AAUQs1a

Thanks for the links...I ended doing a search on the advertised AMD
processor that is included in the Acer AS5251-1513....apparently it is
only a single core processor and it likely that the computer will be a
bit slower than the dual cores. I actually got hands one with one at
Walmart. On the outside, seems like good looking and solid. Keyboard
is solid. However, sad that it has a 64bit os but only 2 gigs of ram.
However, going to 4 gigs would increase the total price to at least
$200. I suppose if you use it as is, it might be a good buy. Larry
Okay, I'm using the computer right now. I'm installing a fairly
intensive game as I type (Aika Online), so once it finishes, we'll see
how it performs. Oh, and the max memory this comp can support is 8 gb,
by the way, if that's a factor. As memory prices drop further, this
computer won't lose its extendability.
