I totally glanced over this particular deal at Best Buy from last weekend’s circular. They currently have the Acer Aspire 5735 notebook (not a netbook) for a whopping low price of $399. Although it is currently sold out, you can still order it and have it shipped to you when there’s more stock. If all you’re looking for is a cheap notebook and you don’t care about weight, then you should definitely consider this system a look over. Yes, the specs aren’t awe-inspiring but come on now, it’s $399. You’ll get a system with an Intel Pentium Dual Core Processor T3200 (rated at 2GHz), 2GB of RAM, a DVD burner, 15.6 inch WXGA display, 160GB SATA HDD, Intel GMA 4500M graphics, media card reader, Wi-Fi (even draft-N!), speakers, and Windows Vista Home Premium. It does weigh around 5.9 lbs and measure 1.5 inches thick.. but again.. it’s $399!! CNET’s Crave took a look at the notebook here and found:

If I were in the market for a new laptop, I might split my budget and grab the Aspire 5735 for my home machine and a Netbook for when I’m on the road. At a combined $800 to $900, I’d get two machines for the price of one (mainstream) model.

Seems like a great buy! Not sure if this price will last through till Sunday or not.
