Acers are generally good little machines, but some of them don't last all to long. If you're looking at it, consider any possible warranties as an investment option.
That said, I'm typing this from a cheapo Acer LCD monitor that's lasted me over 3 years already. But not everybody is so lucky with the same model.

I'd recommend the Samsung N110, the same system specs but with a nice keyboard and excellent battery life. Should be able to find one for under USD400.

I had an Acer and it was quite good, but the keys kept falling off, and two years later the motherboard was shot. I don't know why it treated it well, but if it's short term it should be good.
