Acer beat Asus in both price and performance (i5 @ 2.93 vs i3 @ 2.53)
Acer battery is made in Japan

Sweet thx I'll get the Acer
Just a word of warning: Acer has horrible, horrible customer support.

No idea about Asus, though. Could be just as bad.

If your laptop is perfect from day one and never develops any problems, of course, it doesn't really matter what the support is like. And odds are that will be the case. But it wasn't for me.
Never need any support or warranty, just replace the HDD with Intel SSD 40Gb for 94$ (HDD on laptop is easy to break) then convert HDD to external HDD
I've already ordered a new SSD

@regnad
Well , it depend on each person use it .As for me ,i have both Acer desktop and laptop
