I have to admit, I have always been pretty spectacle of buying a computer at Wal-Mart. I have always seen the computers and laptops on display, but never really stopped to look at them. I have always assumed that they were cheap and not very high in quality. My opinion has changed. Yesterday I purchased an Acer laptop computer from Wal-Mart, and to be honest, the laptop isn’t half bad. Its pretty fast, the screen looks great and the keyboard has a good feel to it. I walked out of Wal-Mart with a brand new laptop computer for under $450 dollars, including tax. All in all, that is not a bad deal in my book. The laptop was a birthday gift for my wife. She is very happy with it. The computer came with Windows Vista, and it has a DVD burner.
