    Product Description

    Take control of your local area network to streamline performance, protect your data and reduce expensive downtime. Whilst an unmanaged switch is fine for connecting a few PCs and laptops in a home environment, it is not appropriate for use in a company network with many PCs and servers. For these environments a managed switch is essential to give the required levels of control, network performance, security and reliability. Modern managed switches can provide all these functions using standard techniques such as VLANs, Port Trunking, security, prioritization, filtering and SNMP network management.

                            The Aspire 1700 series has been specifically designed for employees of small and medium businesses and for self-employed professionals looking for a transportable notebook with a full desktop sized screen for stunning detail and clarity for both work and entertainment use wherever they stay. Great for relaxed viewing of complex worksheets and devastating multimedia presentations, it is also the ideal choice for selected private users who don't want space consuming PCs around the house, but still need a removable computer for entertainment, for access to the Internet, and for home applications.

                            Amazon.com Product Description

                            Definitely large and cumbersome when compared to the new breed of lightweight ultra-portables flooding the market, the Acer Aspire 1710 (AS1712Smi) Notebook PC is nevertheless an incredibly capable and feature-laden rig best suited to power users who don't need to carry their notebook everywhere they go. If your goal is to replace your desktop PC, astound your friends with impressive subwoofer-enhanced audio, or to have access to desktop-level speed and versatility from locations other than your home base, the biggest and baddest notebook in the entire Acer roster packs more than enough muscle for the job.

                            Measuring 14.9 by 12.6 by 1.9 - 2.2 inches and tipping the scales at 14.1 pounds (with combo drive) or 15.7 pounds (with combo drive and battery), the Acer Aspire 1710 (AS1712Smi) is clearly a weighty proposition. But if easy portability is not its forte, performance certainly is. Powered by a commanding 3.0 GHz Intel Pentium 4 CPU, one full GB of main memory (twice the notebook average), and a potent nVidia GeForce FX Go 5700 graphics card with 128 MB of dedicated video memory, the unit is ready for anything you can throw its way, including most 3-D games and applications. In fact, it will outperform the vast majority of today's stay-at-home desktop PCs.

                            And there are certain advantages to its large profile. At 17 inches, the system's SXGA TFT display screen is both enormous and very detailed, supporting resolutions up to 1280 by 1024. Furthermore, Acer has stocked the unit with a bevy of top-notch amenities, including a whopping 120 GB hard disk (double the notebook norm), an all-inclusive 109-key keyboard with hotkeys, a Touch Pad with 4-way scroll key, and a versatile DVD-Dual drive through which you can burn and listen to audio CDs, archive data, play your favorite movies, and write DVDs in today's most fashionable formats, DVD- and DVD+.

                            The Acer Aspire 1710 (AS1712Smi) will keep you in touch no matter where you go. Communication options include a high-speed LAN port, a low-speed RJ-11 dial-up modem and, last but certainly not least, an 802.11g wireless LAN for those times when you can't plug in. To ensure you can efficiently interface with all the latest high-tech gadgetry, Acer has also equipped the unit with a variety of connectivity facilities, including four high-speed USB 2.0 ports for standard plug and play devices, one FireWire IEEE 1394 port for fast data transfer from digital camcorders, an S-Video TV-out, and a futuristic assorent of alternative audio-video ports.

                            As expected in a notebook of this size and scope, battery life is not particularly strong. Average life expectancy between charges is just one hour.

                            1 out of 5 stars Great Tools Upfront - Very Poor After Sale Service.......2006-01-18

                            I am a web developer and have owned an Acer 1710 for slightly over one year. It has performed everything that I have asked of it with flying colors. I have been incredibly pleased with its reliability and speed. In many ways it has outperformed many desktop PC's. Portability is not an issue; ocassionally I can take this thing anywhere I must and grab even a weak signal and use it effectively and go where other laptops can not think of going. My problem with this Acer Laptop is that the screen suddenly burned out after about 1000-1200 hours of use - slighly beyond the one year warranty - In ten years of computer use I have never had a screen burn out. The manufacturer was adamant about charging nearly $500 to replace the light source. Apparantly the back light is an integral compontent of the screen. Now, light bulbs are consumable but why does the design so restrict replacing the light source that it must cost me an arm and a leg to replace it? Thus, it is my feeling that Acer screens suffers from unintelligent industrial design. I will not purchase another Acer product because of this hidden undisclosed design-performance flaw. What else will this company build that will cost me unexpectedly down the road?
                            My personal feeling is that poor design is the burden of the manufacturer and they want me to pay up and bear the burned of their design problem. Too bad. Never again.
