Acer Aspire AS8950G-9839 Laptop Review
Big laptops tend to fall victim to bulky, plastic constructions. The AS8950G-9839 is an exception to that, as its colossal lid is draped in aluminum. Though I wouldn't call this laptop thin, the aluminum has a slimming effect, masking some of the bulkiness that you see in other media center laptops like Toshiba Qosmio X505-Q850 and Asus G73SW-BST6 ($1,299.99 list, 3.5 stars)—its counterparts with plastic chasses. Unlike the Dell XPS 17 ($1,670 direct, 3.5 stars), the AS8950G-9839 doesn't use aluminum in its bottom half. The interior color of the AS8950G-9839 matches the lid—well, up to the palm rest area, which is clad in black, for contrast.
