Reviews of the Acer Aspire 3935-6504

CNET Review
The Good: Slim, polished design; powerful for a sub-$1,000 13-inch laptop; good battery life.
The Bad: Wimpy touch pad, VGA-only video output; some parts feel quite plastic.
The Bottom Line: Thin, sexy 13-inch laptops are reasonably common, but the Acer Aspire 3935 is one of the slickest available for less than $1,000.
