Acer TravelMate TM8204WLMi Review (pics, specs)
If I take everything into consideration, I am not happy with this notebook. It has too many faults for a $2500 price tag. I wish I could return it for a refund so I could buy my Sager back, but unfortunately it’s not possible. I will keep it for a while and see if I learn to like it’s good points, otherwise I will sell it on eBay with a $500 loss….

I would only recommend this notebook if you are looking for a light, business-like notebook that will support your games. If gaming is your main concern, go for the Sager 5720; if you want something with a dual core notebook in a fairly light package, avoid the 8204 and get something cheaper.

Although it may not be priced as aggressively as other Acer notebooks, you are getting a whole bundle of cutting edge technology wrapped up in a great looking chassis – the carbon fibre lid really does look awesome.

There’s no doubt that Intel’s dual core Yonah chip is a fabulous piece of kit and anyone who’s serious about using a notebook as their main computer should definitely go down this route. Expect to see masses of new notebooks based on the Napa platform over the coming months, but Acer’s competitors will have to work hard to come up with a better model than this one.

Never one to rest on its laurels, Acer is one of the first system builders to release an entire laptop range based on Intel’s new Core Duo processors and third-generation Centrino technology. It has much to live up to following Apple’s claims that these processors do “a whole lot more” in an Apple MacBook Pro than they do in a PC, but Acer remains bullish, claiming that the 8204WLMi is the “ultimate instrument to enhance mobile performance”.
