      Works great for gaming, although I haven't tested it on graphics heavy games yet, just TF2
      Thin design, edgy look
      Can't remove battery which is the only negative I can think of

        Comments about Acer Aspire TimelineX AS5830TG-6642 15.6" Notebook Computer (Cobalt Blue):

        I have been using my Aspire TimelineX AS5830TG-6642 15.6" Notebook for two weeks and find it just great.
        Bought it for my academic and office work including mathematical calculations and drawing, and it does the job well. I have chosen this notebook for its balanced processor and memory, for the stylish look and decent battery life. The screen is crisp and bright, the sound is solid and deep. It is quiet, I can rarely notice the sound of a cooler.
        Do not see any drawbacks. Completely satisfied so far.
