Once upon a time there lived a great person named jose antony. He was very satisfied with an AMD computer with 128 mb ram build by Nest system. At that time an esteemed company named Acer entered into the market with budget laptops. The poor young handsome man fell into the grips of Acer advertisement (where he saw top film stars holding laptop and posing for the ads,but this young man never in his life thought that even the stars who were posing for this wont use accer and wud throw it off as soon as the ad was shooted) and sold his pc and brought the acer 3002nlc laptop. He was very proud of his laptop and even advised his friends to buy the laptop instead of any pc. every thing went smooth and fine except for some formatting of hard disk.........................................
And the most drastic incident happened exactly one week after the guarantee period has just finished; the cd-rom of that poor programmer's laptop started malfunctioning. the good hearted programmer went to the Acer service station and replaced the drive spending money from his own pocket. The next two weeks went smoothly.


One sunny early morning when the birds chirping sound woke this programmer up and he was in a good mood to finish his project,humming a few lines of his favourite song he walked towards his laptop and found that ....................................... there was a big vertical line in his display,exactly similar to a vertical ruler that we see in photoshop and other softwares.... He again contacted the Acer service center and they told that changing the display will cost almost 50% as that of the laptop. With the heavy hearted mind he told no and continued using the laptop with the line in the display(may be he thought he could use it as a bult in ruler....).......... from that time onwards he and his laptop were a funny object for his friends to tease. But the poor programmer with a heavy heart heard all that comments and argued that it was only a minor problem...........
Time again went for 2 weeks more... on another bright pleasant Sunday evening he found his windows got stucked. He thought that it was the complaint of the os ...rebooted, rebooted again and again. the windows was hanged in such a way that he had to remove the battery to shutdown. With no good response. He thought it was a virus infection, he re-partitioned and formatted the entire hard disk and installed the windows. But................................ During the installation also with windows got stucked. so he formatted again and reinstalled windows for his luck windows was installed properly ; and on the first login again the windows got stucked. he tried installing all version of windows but all behaved the same.

Then only he came to know that Acer stands for (Always Complaint Every time Repair)........
From that moment onwards he started to discourage all his friends in taking Acer laptops.

I Dedicate this blog for all Acer laptop owner who are still find problems in there laptop. Please feel free to add your comments.....

and to end the story the young man now also continues formatting,...formattiing and formatting.....
