We just purchased an Acer Aspire 5520 as my reward to my children for being both top 2 in their respective class. Below are picture taken when we open the box.
I will try to make review about this new toy after 2 months of use. , My kids got a feedback that they love their new gadget since it has a load pack of games :). It also works fine using Internet flash games. Just press the below picture if you want to see bigger photo size.
