Thanks.

How much more use can I expect out of this?

I only need like 200 hrs over three months.


I got two refurb acer aspire ones in 2009, one had linpus, the other
Windows. This is the Windows one. After that, I can either replace the
screen or trash the whole thing. Fortunately, all my stuff is on the
removable SD card. I had an HP Aero 4/25 I was so comfy with and when it
died, It was a pain to rescue stuff.

Replacing screens on an Aspire isn't a big deal. An independent shop
will do it for $100. I've done it myself using service manual
instructions.

I bought mine as a refurb with minor screen damage and used it till
it fell off the back of the bike for the third time.- then replaced
the screen.
