    Arrow Acer Deploys FIrst 5.1 Surround Sound Laptop

    Sometimes the most unlikely products come to market. "Unlikely" just doesn't seem to cut it this time around, however. We really didn't think that a laptop would be the place for 5.1 surround sound, but Acer has plans of its own to do exactly that. The Taiwanese computer giant is busting out two new 1080p-esque HD screen-equipped laptops complete with 5.1 audio. Yeah, we didn't get it at first either.

    I hope they made the subwoofer pretty lightweight.

    Sounds like a gimmick to me... after owning once acer laptop, I wouldn't go back. They are decent computers, but their tech support is awful.

    Default I don't know if I could carry all this around......

    So, with my Canton fronts and my SVS 2039CS tipping the scales at what, 250#, I think I would just go with a 2.1 and the laptop..........
