I don't see that too often as a standard "feature". Usually they list as an option, but don't tell you how to opt for it. The Intel Chipset and nVidia graphics set don't warm the cockles of *my* heart, but the CPU is decent. Haven't heard anything about the 9650 mobile chipset, so the name nVidia makes me think twice. All told, from what I know, it is an excellent laptop, and Acer's rep is decent. Also note that for reasons no one can figure out, there are three classes of Acer Laptop - A1, never have an issue with it; decent, typical laptop; and piece of crap. The A1 and crap can be consecutive off the line, or appear at random, but the vast majority are decent. Good Luck!
