Acer Aspire 5920 ‘is the best all-purpose laptop’

Choosing from the wide selection of PC laptops available can be a tricky business with so many things to take into account.

Fortunately IDG.no has come up with a list of the best all-purpose laptops around.

According to the website, the best that money can buy is the Acer Aspire 5920-6954.

"The Acer Aspire 5920 Vista Home Premium laptop has just about everything home-office buyers could ask for in a solid budget laptop," the news provider states.

However, it does point out that the system lacks business applications.

The Lenovo IdeaPad Y510, HP Pavilion dv2660se, Dell Inspiron 1525 and Lenovo ThinkPad R61 complete the top five.

In fact, the IdeaPad Y510 might be the system of choice for the budget conscious as it matches the Acer Aspire 5920 in terms of performance and is actually slightly cheaper.

Those looking for a smaller PC might want to look elsewhere.

Last week, Acpmag.com described the Acer Travelmate 3220 a good, compact laptop.
