Acer Ferrari 4000 Review

 

Ferrari-themed laptop delivers long battery life but has an awkward keyboard layout and a small screen.

Delivers great battery life

Keyboard is awkwardly designed

The Ferrari 4000 is pit-crew friendly, with memory slots and a hard drive that are accessible to and upgradable by users. They sit in separate bottom compartments under covers that are held in place by small screws. You can remove the optical drive,...

Acer Ferrari 4000

Design worthy of the Ferrari name. Carbon fiber cover. Fast graphics

Noisy mouse buttons

Through a partnership with the legendary carmaker, the thin-and-light Ferrari 4000 has a dazzling new design and new components for extra kick under the hood.

Acer Ferrari 4000 series 4005 WLMi AMD Turion 64 ML-37 2.0GHz

 

The Acer Ferrari 4000 series of laptop computers have received their fair share of press. The combination of good looks from a reputable company is tempting, but can it really deliver what you would expect from a computer its stature?

So in the end the Ferrari really does do its job well. It has looks to match its great performance. Although not the lightest around it is certainly powerful, making a worthy replacement for your lowly desktop computer. And with its fully features...

Acer Ferrari 4005 WLMi AMD Turion64 ML-37 Laptop Review

 

Acer's Ferrari 4005 WLMi laptop is the latest in a line of high-end gaming notebooks bearing the Italian motor company's signature.

High spec but low build quality and terrible support
