Acer Laptop Ferrari 3200, On the off chance that a notebook machine painted with the same polished, red completion supported by the Italian race-auto producer sounds like a sensible substitute, then take the Acer Ferrari 3200 for a test drive. This machine is the second model in Acer's Ferrari lineup, propelled a year ago after Acer turned into the authority supplier of IT items to the Scuderia Ferrari Formula One group. 

With a smooth, gaudy case measuring 1.3 inches thick, the Ferrari 3200 has demeanor, however does it have speed deserving of its namesake? Not exactly. With a 1.8-Ghz Low-control versatile Athlon 64 2800+ processor, this notebook earned a Worldbench 5 score of 78. While respectable, that is still 14 percent slower than the top-scoring Dell Inspiron XPS, furnished with a 3.4-Ghz Pentium 4 Extreme Edition desktop chip. We haven't tried different notebooks with the 1.8-Ghz Low-control versatile Athlon 64 2800+, yet we can say that the Ferrari 3200 is marginally speedier than the more seasoned Ferrari 3000, which utilized a 1.87-Ghz Mobile Athlon XP-M 2500+ AMD chip; in pace tests, the 3200 performed similarly to notebooks with Intel's 1.6-Ghz/600-Mhz Pentium M processor.

Acer's first Ferrari came stacked with a DVD copier and just about every other notebook characteristic you could think of aside from a wide screen and a secluded inlet. The Ferrari 3200 is essentially the same notebook with a few changes, most remarkably an opening nourished drive. Other new gimmicks incorporate a greater hard drive, an all the more effective illustrations chip (ATI's Mobility Radeon 9700), and a four-in-one card peruser on the front of the case. The Ferrari 3200 additionally runs a tad longer on battery than the Ferrari 3000 did: 2.6 hours versus 2.2. 

The Ferrari 3200's implicit Bluetooth and 802.11g segments are helpfully controlled by their own particular on/off catches on the front of the case. For whatever is left of your association needs, Acer provides for you four USB 2.0 ports, in addition to Firewire, S-Video-out, and parallel ports. Acer tosses in a red USB mouse and, to keep your roadster looking great, a red cleaning fabric. One issue that has yet to be resolved: The $1999 sticker does exclude any noteworthy applications. 

You may need to get used to the ergonomic console, which games Acer's trademark 5-degree upward bow. Fortunately, the overall planned design of four programmable dispatch catches and a touchpad with four-way parchment help facilitate the move. Like its ancestor, the Ferrari 3200 does not have especially solid sound, yet applications and DVD motion pictures look great on the 15-inch screen at its local determination of 1400 by 1050 pixels. 

Memory and capacity are genuinely simple to update. One of the notebook's 2 GB RAM spaces is found in a simple to-get to base compartment. The second is stowed away under the console in a compartment that is hard to reach without scarring the case with the screwdriver you have to pry up the console. The notebook's hard drive is spotted in a simple access lowest part compartment, ensured by a board held set up by a few little screws. 

The Ferrari 3200 accompanies a decent printed client manual, an electronic rendition of which you can download from Acer's Web webpage. While the manuals forget a few points of interest, for example, the presence of the RAM space under the console, they are generally finish and simple to pursuit. The Acrobat manual gives a connected list. 

The Acer Ferrari 3200 is not Ferrari-quick, yet this completely stacked versatile performs well and looks sharp.
