Acer Aspire L310 - PC Mag
PC Magazine have published a review of the Acer Aspire L310 small-form-factor desktop PC. 'Crammed into the L310 are a 250GB SATA hard drive, an Intel Core 2 Duo E6300 processor, 1GB of system memory, and a slot-mounted DVD burner. These components combine to equal a solid desktop PC, particularly for the casual user. If you're upgrading from a $1,200 tower you bought back in 2003 and you never installed any expansion cards, let alone memory, then a system like the Aspire L310 might be one for you.
The dual-core E6300 is certainly fast enough for today's rich-content Web sites and for doing light photo editing (red-eye removal, cropping, and resizing photos). Sure, the L310 comes with "only" integrated Intel GMA 3000 graphics, but that's sufficient for the Aero effects in Vista's Home Premium edition. The 250GB drive is enough for a couple hundred thousand MP3s or digital photos, so if you don't download a lot of video files, you should be set (you could download over 30 full-length movies, but then your hard drive would be full).'
