    I had "some" hope that the V5 series would be built well enough to qualify as a good value for a budget notebook, but it looks like Acer just didn't set the bar quite high enough when they designed and built this notebook. Too bad. Thanks for the review, Charles!

    Anyone know where I can find a tutorial on how to disassemble an aspire v5-571p? I want to replace the hdd with an sdd, but can't figure out how to take the back off. There are tutorials for older models, which are way easier than the new v5 slim model, but I couldn't find any for the new model.

    Best,

    Jim
