Acer Aspire T180

 

The T180 is housed in a fairly stylish silver-and-black minitower case, with LEDs for power and hard drive activity set inconspicuously on top (unlike the exposed LEDs on the front of other tower PCs). Nothing too fancy; it's a budget PC, after all....

Cheap. Nice design. Lots of expansion space. No bloatware

Hobbled by a single-core processor compared with competitors

The Acer Aspire T180 is one of the least expensive PCs we've seen. But unless your needs are extremely modest, I suggest you spend an extra hundred dollars to get a system that will stay current longer.

A veru good computer. The Acer Aspire is very fast and reliable, and it doesn't make very much noise. I remember I had computers that would overheat and shutdown. Then  I bought this, and it made everything so much easier. The Acer Aspire is a lifesaver!
