laptops from acer are not that bad looking, any ways all the laptops come with a basic shape only the edges differ.

He is talking about the new ones; I kind of liked the old ones better, had a 5002 NWLMI for two years before I sold it to a student of mine, it's still in good shape

Its rather odd though. I have seen alot of people saying that Acer is a piece of garbage of everyone I know who has one has really had a good experience .

If I bought the Acer laptop which was there for Rs. 24000 at the time it would have been garbage. I paid almost Rs. 50000 at the time, the configuration was good for the price and the Turion 64 bit, I was told, had just come in. Compaq released a similar model a little later without WXGA resolution. Even today if you buy an Acer or any laptop for Rs. 20000-25000 don't expect the world.

Price and design are no points of comparison.

I personally find Acer laptops

I find the Gemstone design quite good. You cant expect Mac/Vaio-ish looks for 20-25k.

Better looking yes in my opinion but HP laptops are way costly than Acer.

yep. Acer lappys look good. My roommate got 4520 last weekend and it looks really good and performance is excellent too.

Joke of the century. hahaha

Please don't say about those Intel celeron based crap lappy's that HP gives. They shouldn't be termed as laptops

mainstream lappys are good in HP but they are overpriced.
