Is this a good computer?

Ive been looking at gaming computers and I found this one, it had lots of great reviews.

Acer Aspire AM5100-U5301A

AMD 64×2 3.0 Ghz
3gb DDR 2 RAM
500Gb HD
The graphics card sucks upgrading to a 8500GT 512

Available 3.5″ bays 4
Available 5.25″ bays 1
Available PCI slots 1
Available PCI-E x1 slots 1
Available PCI-E x16 slots 1

It says it has 0 DVI ports, does that mean you cannot connect a monitor?

And what is each bay for, I know the x16 is for my graphics card?
Is the type of graphics card I get based on motherboard, for example there are PNY, ASUS, ZOGIS etc. Im guessing the advantage of having multiple slots is multiple graphics cards? My main goal is to be able to play WoW, BF2 and other older games. Could this on handle games like CoD4?

Is this a nomal deteriorating battery?

My laptop is an Acer Aspire 5672 WLMi, I bought it almost a year ago…two weeks ago I recall the battery life shown in the Power Management was 1.50 for a simple Word Processing condition…but suddenly this morning I see the battery can only last for 1.07…and it really does…

My question is…is this really a normal deteriorating battery? Can it be saved? Must I change into a new battery this instant? How low can the deterioration get? How much does a new battery cost?

Oh yeah, during that two week period, I charged the battery and then left it unplugged from the laptop. I used AC power most of the time, because my laptop didn’t leave my desk at all…

I just got my new pink laptop and I love it! The display is very clear and the colors are very sharp, I thought it would seem small but it is just right. It is very light weight and I can use this anywhere like in the house or take it to school or work. The only drawback is the cd/dvd not being in it but I use my ipod so I get my music from there and I dont plan to watch any movies on this. If you need this for work school or travel this is perfect. I couldnt have asked for a better more convenient and reliable laptop :) The price is amazing, you cant get any better than this, I am very impressed, hope you buy this laptop, you won’t regret it.

The quick read is that this is a great product for the money. I’m an IT professional with 25+ years of experience and I’m very impressed. I purchased one of these for my wife, a hard-working professional who has little tolerance for technology problems. She has been very happy with her new Aspire One. The LED-lit screen is obviously smaller than bigger laptops, but it is clear and bright. The keyboard takes a little time to get used to because the k

I’m thinking about buying a Acer Aspire notebook. Does anyone know about the pros and cons of this notebook?

Acer Aspire 15.4″ Widescreen Notebook PC (5100-5674)
The price is $529.99 at Circuit City. It also comes with a free printer, wireless router, Internet security, and a case. Today is the last day to buy it in order to get the rebates. Which is a good deal if the laptop is a good one.

How do I know if this is compatible?

I am looking for a projector to be used with an older laptop (Acer Travelmate 240). The specs for the projector say “This configuration does not connect to notebook computers, PCs PDAs, cell phones, or other devices unless the device has composite output. Please make sure to consult your device’s owner manual. ” I can’t find the manual, even on Acer’s site. Is there a way of knowing if this will work before spending the money on the projector?
