Girlfriend has an MSI. It is quite terrible, but I'd say it's on equal footing with Acer. Especially the casing. I'd say Asus is the way to go.

Oh, of course. I'm given these as gifts so I don't really have a choice in the brand, mind you. The laptop's been broken for almost a year now, stopped using it when I got my tower.

if I were to upgrade id get a g400 or a zowie, depending on how comfortable they are, more likely the g400 because more buttons and cheaper

| The G400 is pretty damn comfy. Someone got me the G700 or I probably would have never changed from the 400. Has a lot of buttons yo.

Every brand has bad laptops though, so maybe your girlfriend just bought a bad laptop.
