Acer Laprtop Issues

[skideeppow]

I purchased an acer laptop, apid 1700 got a dual core blahn blah blah everyhting in it.
This thing has been nothing but problems. The wireless will not connect and when it does it does not stay connected. The signal is weak. My girlfriends computer hooks up on the same conncetion instantly.
the processing speed is super slow.
any way, i have called them nuermous times.
i purchased 9 months ago. Do i have any recourse to return this lemon.

I am at the point when I am just going to toss is and buy a new one. None of my IT guys have been able to fix this.

Same deal here.

First problem: when more than one user was logged on, screen brightness went to zero and stayed there.

Solved by uninstalling all their e-power software add ons and letting windows do that

Second problem: after removing all their software, it would not hold onto a strong wireless signal. So far, solved by reinstalling the e-wireless component and letting it manage the wireless instead of windows.

My overall verdict: buggiest piece of crap computer I have ever used.

there are no software patches or updates ever.
there is no tech support to speak of (not that I use that route on the phone, but at least have a database of known errors and patches).

Best of all: Acer is buying gateway to run that into the ground also!!

Good news: I only paid $260 for the new dual core blah blah laptop that listed for $1100 cuz it was on clearance. If not for that, I would be royally pissed. BTW none of the problems showed up in the first 30 days when I was deciding to keep it or not.
