Clear picture ; Powerful processor ; Excellent graphical performance ; Easy to grip ; Could replace a desktop

Cheap-looking finish ; Screen reflects light too much ; Keyboard poorly built ; Short battery life ; Not very portable

The Aspire 7741G is a good, but not excellent, laptop. If you're after a desktop replacement system, it's worth considering.

Plenty powerful for doing most things I want to do. I can edit video, music, play emulators, Skype, etc. It appears to be fairly sturdy and has a nice simple look. Also, not a lot of bloat ware cluttering the desktop

The only real con I can think of is the keys on the keyboard are very easy to pop off. It only happened once accidentally, but it was easy to put back on. and the other thing would be the beep it makes when you plug it in - kinda loud and unpleasant....

this laptop is awesome for the price range. Dedicated graphics card, huge screen resolution, and a very able cpu. It keeps up with my needs and games just fine. I usually have photoshop running, a dozen or so tabs in Chrome, and a game at times. It...

the trackpad stinks, Horribly so. You really do feel like you've suddenly caught a bad case of the twitches when you use it. I've been using an external notebook mouse since I bought it. I can't put up with the trackpad ; the power brick is a dud. Many...

none

Purchased in July, put into used in September. Since actually running this laptop everything seemed fine until I hooked up an external monitor. Randomly both screens turn off and then come back on after a few seconds ; The lap top has been sent back to...

display is crisp ; there isn't much glare on display ; keyboard feels and works great ; plenty of power to run everything from word processing and internet surfing to some gaming and adobe cs4 (For recreational use only. not suited for large projects.)...

monitor has terrible view angle ; battery life is very poor when using anything using any processing power or graphics. less than an hour ; bloatware (doesn't take long to remove) ; the computer doesn't come with stock discs. either buy dvd's with it...

Computer is great, fast, plays all the games I have on med+ settings with 60+ fps ; Keyboard feels nice ; Nice large screen. (Makes the battery life suffer a little bit but that's to be expected.)

Can't really think of any right now ; Read in other thought for why it's a 3 egg rating

Great for gaming, doesn't overheat, expandable memory, super quiet, HD screen overall aazing

A bit heavy

Not many, specs are accurate

In addition to the left hand mouse with super scroll for the left index finger (yep, I am right handed, or was), the keyboard is so cheap the keys toggle, so you will have to strike each key exactly in the center or get no response. This is esp. bad...

This notebook is amazing for the price. I have only used it for a day now and I bought it for gaming and programming. I've only played Counter Strike Source, and on max settings it has about 100-130 fps. The display is also very nice. I recommend this...

VERY HOT ; I recommend buying a laptop cooler if you play games for long periods of time

ok it is a laptop, and the specs are correct

Stupid mouse pad is for a leftie. Even the super scroll function is for the left index finger. The pad itself is left of center. The scroll can only be used effectively with the left hand. If you are a leftie, you will be fine, if you are right...
