    I hope you wont need the laptop to be too mobile. I had a AS3003wlci and Acer shipped it with a 4 cell 2000mAh battery which barely lasted an hour. There was a bigger capacity 8 cell battery available which they included as standard in the 5003 and was interchangable with the one in the 3003. So, yeah be warned of the battery life. Otherwise it was a decent budget laptop.
