Hello everyone,

I was hoping you guys could help me out!

I was having tech issues with my Acer Aspire 1520 (1525WLMi) so i contacted acer and it seems i will have to get a replacement!

Anyway, they sent me an offer >> the Acer Aspire 5610AWLMi

I was trying to compare the two but i'm a noob when it comes to notebooks.

What are you opinions on this matter?

This is my current notebook:
