I'm typing this on an Acer laptop now. I bought it about 2 years ago, when it was cheap and quite high spec. However, after 18 months, small vertical lines appeared on the screen and they're getting worse! It's over a year, so it's out of warranty, but I expect a laptop to last more than 18 months. I won't be buying another Acer!

The HP I use at work feels solid and is built very well, even if it is a bit heavy.
Hello Jamesey, we also did that Fn and F5 before. But the problems still persist.

And same as you, i won't buy any Acer laptop again, hahaha.
