Question on Acer Aspire
With Dave's christmas bonus we are looking at getting Acer Aspire 9300-5317 Notebook (BIG selling point to me is the 17 inch screen and the 10 key on the side)
http://www.compusa.com/products/prod..._5317_Notebook my question because while I know a lot, I dont know everything. If you get a laptop thats wi-fi capable, do I still have to use my wireless usb thing, or does it work with just my wireless router? |
Yes, the ad implies it has the radio. "Capable" might only imply it has a slot for a radio. According to the page you posted that model does have an 802.11b/g radio so you can connect to your b or g router via radio, or with an Ethernet cable. No wireless USB thing needed.
Give it a try first if you can. I bought an Acer last year that wasn't as good in person as in the specs. I suppose the same goes for any brand these days. |
go to hp.com and get a dv9000z. You can customize it to the same specs as the Acer, it's only $54 more, and it's MUCH better. Acer's support is also craptastic, whereas Compaq has always been excellent for me.
