The TravelMate 8200's souped up internal components and copious features make it an undeniably attractive proposition, but its weight and dimensions make it less suited to life on the road.
The main draw of Acer's latest carbon fibre flagship model is its cutting-edge components and swivel webcam. However, in terms of design, there is much room for improvement.

The Acer TravelMate 6292 passes muster, and comes in at a great price. We just wish it looked a little nicer.
