Averatec AV7160-EC1 Review
Laptop Magazine has a review up on the Averatec AV7160-EC1
The lure of a big screen notebook like the Averatec AV7160-EC1 is hard to resist as you navigate the laptop aisle. While the machine boasts the promising combination of a huge 17-inch widescreen and an attractive price ($1,199), a little shopping around will net you better performance and even more multimedia features for about the same cost.
The sharp-looking AV7160 is clad in a glossy black shell with silver accents. Averatec should be commended for shaving the unit’s weight to a slight 7.2 pounds; many 17-inch notebooks we’ve seen weigh more than eight pounds. Still, this is no featherweight, and the big screen makes this system too bulky to tote often.
In the end it only earns a 2.5 out of 5, a very average machine it seems. They do like its design, and its weight for its size, but its is marked negatively on its performance, speakers, and lack of remote or TV tuner options.
Easily replaceable by the Toshiba Qosmio G25-AV513.
