    They're our primary laptop supplier at work. Haven't needed to use their support services as of yet (tend to just go through the manufacturers support, as I find it good, despite the reputation of Acer), but I can't fault them.

    used them, got a very good deal on a tablet pc for me, was the one they'd used to take photos for the website, had never even been powered up. £100 off, and it had obviously never been used.

    I used them a while ago to get an acer laptop for my GF, its been great, no problems other than that they wouldnt let me send it to a location that wasnt my invoice address (annoying since im a uni student).
