Review: Acer Aspire ES1-512

Introduction and performanceOne particular Acer laptop is a hot seller at Amazon and Argos – the entry-level Acer Aspire ES1-512 tops the leader board at both retailers, and this is the model we're reviewing today.The Taiwanese manufacturer chose to stick to a tried-and-trusted formula of bundling as many features as possible for as low a price as it could manage, although in the case of the ES1-512, that price can fluctuate by more than a quarter at the same vendor, depending on when you buy.
