Robust case ; Simple but timeless Timeline design ; High battery life ; Non-reflective display surface ; Good computing performance in the office field ; Mini PCI Express slot ; Fairly low noise development ; Docking port and fingerprint scanner

Acer TravelMate 8471 Timeline Review

 

If the TravelMate's screen is first-rate, so is its keyboard: It's full-sized (in fact, the A through apostrophe keys span an eighth of an inch more than our desktop keyboard's 8 inches), with the Ctrl and Delete keys in their proper bottom left and...

Notebook Review: Acer TravelMate 8471

Acer TravelMate TM8471 - Time is money

 

Here we are again, warming up these cold days with a review of another Timeline from well known Acer. This time we will be putting the 8471 model through our tests. The particular configuration offers a 14 inch display, Intel's SU7300 at 1.3 GHz, 3 GB...

Very mobile ; Good display ; Simple design ; Good battery life

Too much unnecessary software that requires registration ; Low processor performance

The Acer TM8471 is a decent computer for the student or traveller in that it offers a long battery life and does not take up too much space. The computer is simple in its design and thus physically user friendly. In addition it has an optical drive...

Great size and weight for travelling with. Screen is just the right size, not too small so that you have to scroll all the while or strain to read text. Light on the shoulder. Laptop is quick and battery life excellent, no need to carry the charger if...

Case shows finger prints.

Acer Travelmate Timeline 8471-733G25

 

An great all rounder that provides excellent business performance and usability. Keyboard feels solid and keys are spaced out enough that there is no miss-keying.

None so far!
