    Anyone know about this Acer 6962?
    I got friends selling this, but don't want to answer any question about it.
    Thanks in advance for the reply.

    Well, if he's trying to sell it then shouldn't you be allowed to see it? I can't see anything with that name other than the one links above.

    Sounds like a TravelMate model - the 6292 and 6592 exist in Canada, maybe the 6962 does in other geographies.

    Blessed, that can't be right - the 6292 is a 12.1" screen, while the notebook lee_what wants to know about is a 17" screen.
