I bought this small laptop because it fits the TSA size restrictions and also because I really wanted something portable and I didn't need anything with a lot of bells and whistles. I also wasn't really interested in a laptop with touch screen features. This is a small, basic laptop that works great. Before I bought it I was a little concerned with some of the other reviews which mentioned slow operating speed and/or problems with the battery but I haven't had any issues. My large laptop has an i7 processor so naturally this is slower but I don't think it's all that slow and it works for the basic functions I wanted, namely internet and word processing. As for the battery, I followed the instructions that said to fully charge and discharge three times and I haven't had any problems. I also like the flat black finish.

Best Buy Associate worked with me to find a good second computer in Best Buy's extended inventory. This Acer TravelMate has an older processor (Celeron Quad Core N3160) but makes up for that with a solid state drive. Small and light, but broad capabilities.

Nothing fancy but simple reliable and does the job. Make sure you get at least 128 hard drive. For whatever reason, it fills up quickly with every win 10 update. Also, no useful pre-installed software just the usual set of junk apps they all have. Overall, enough bang for your buck.
