Which one do you think?
  Samsung - Good quality and design. It's worth the extra!
  MSI - Similar functions as Samsung for less. Smaller keyboard isn't a big deal.
  Acer - Cheap and portable, decent sized keyboard. What's .4 inches lost, anyway?

Fair warning: news reports today claim the maker of the motherboards and some finished hardware is going to raise their prices next month. They've done some damage control to try and minimize the backlash this might cause.

The take away point is this: Buy Now or pay more next month.

Hm. Your post in combination with Fresnel's before yours has told me the best decision would be to purchase the Acer at Wal Mart. I would avoid the price increase. I would be able to try the machine. If I weren't satisfied I could return it and purchase the Samsung. Seems like a logical choice.

Thank you all for your advice, though I'll admit some feelings of silliness for getting all your information and choosing the model I had in mind before I even created the topic...

lol
Sokay old buddy, old pal. ^^

Sometimes, all you need is confirmation.
