Acer 18.4"Intel Corei3 4GB RAM, 500GB HD,8-Cell& 4 Yr McAfee

Not so much a notebook computer as a way of life. You've got all you need with the Aspire AS8943G-6449 notebook computer--power, performance, entertainment, communication, and protection.

Start with power and performance. This notebook effortlessly multitasks complex applications and programs thanks to the 2.53GHz Intel Core i3-380M processor and 4GB DDR3 RAM. Plus, the 500GB SATA hard drive offers plenty of storage space for your files.

Everyone needs some down time. And the Aspire AS8943G-6449 has entertainment in mind with the huge--and impressive--18.4" diagonal CineCrystal Full HD widescreen LED-backlit display. Pop a movie into the DVD SuperMulti drive and enjoy the amazing sights and sounds. Oh, the sounds. The Dolby-optimized Acer CineSurround sound system uses five built-in speakers and a subwoofer to deliver premium audio. Combine that with Dolby Home Theater audio enhancement and HD audio support with true 5.1 channel surround output and you've got yourself a mind-blowing audio/visual experience.

Staying in touch with the world is so simple with 802.11b/g/n wireless connectivity and a built-in HD webcam, plus Acer PureZone technology with two built-in stereo microphones.

This notebook is accompanied by a PC Treasures software suite that's full of useful productivity, game, and performance titles, including a four-year subscription to McAfee AntiVirus Plus 2011 for peace of mind.

And because this notebook is loaded with Windows 7, everyday computing is faster, simpler, and more reliable. Managing files is so much easier and speedier with enhancements like Jump Lists and improved taskbar previews. Plus, great new features like HomeGroup and Windows Media Center take you into the future of computing. From Acer.
