Should be fine for home use. SATA refers to the hard disk connection, it will he a standard and slow hard disk. If I was buying this I would swap it out for a SSD drive, much quicker...

What is an i3 though? What does i3 mean? What are you expecting it to mean?

Whose under rating i3's? Who are these people? Don't they have something better do to? Maybe i3's should be under rated? Maybe they deserve it? What does i3 mean to you?

What's it supposed to mean though? i3 is there for a reason isn't iy? Do you know what the reason is? Are we supposed to know? Are we being tricked? What does i3 mean? It can't mean just anything can it? It must mean something, what do you think it means?

So i3 means lesbianism to you, or just two women hugging? i3 performance is like those times when you see two women hugging, not that quick, in fact forget speed it's just a nice thing

I mean I have an i3 and compared to the i5 and i7 my brother has got, I do exactly the same things as him such as live streaming football matches and I have no problem whatsoever.

Also, I do not who is underrating the i3, but I will ring the Ministry of i3 Underrating and demand the list of those underrating the i3 under the Freedom of Information Act. If they refuse, I will contact my local MP and the relevant Ombudman.
it the model of the processor, to give it its full name it's an Intel core i3 processor which are dual core and fast enough for most day to day tasks...

Have Acer improved their build quality since 2011 then? My Acer 5750 with i5 and 1TB HD bought as a clearance deal for the princely sum of £199 has twice needed the power socket replaced, one keyboard replacement due to keys breaking off, the case spontaneously cracked and now the whole PC has failed. All in all lasted 2.5 years. Not good enough for a laptop retailing at £399. How long will this one last with daily use I wonder?

i rang them and told them to offer me a better deal with 3 years warranty and they gave me that price all inclusive, you should try ringing them as thats a bargain for what i got.
