Acer 3820TG North America Purchase Options

[NomisR]

I've been holding out in hopes that the new MBP may be somewhat decent but now that news says there's no discreet GPU, that's out of the choice. Either that or the new Sony SA or SB, but SA seems to be no better in terms of GPU so not worth the money, and same with SB.

But now, Lu raised their prices twice so I don't really want to buy from them, any other choices other than Cen and Ncix?

What I am sure is that if Acer ever cost more than other OEMS I would need to think twice.

I think it would be smarter to order through NCIX. At least if your computer ends up arriving with a problem or isn't working you can have it exchanged rather than only having the option to send it to Acer for repair. I sent mine in to be exchanged or fixed, btw and it sucks.. might be another 2 weeks before I can get it back. Main rig down due to Intel's F up too. Least I have a smart phone..

Used, with no warranty left or anything? I'd not pay over $500 or $600 or so for that.

It's probably worth about $600. It has an upgraded drive and ram upgrade. It might also have some warranty left if it was registered. $899? You can get a new one for that, with the momentus drive and ram upgrade.
