Probably, I bought the Acer because it is so small it doesn't appear that I'm doing Kar****.
It cost all of $300, but does everything I need on stage.
I won't need it much longer except for backup as the Audya will do everything I use the laptop for, except internet surfing.
You'd be surprised at how many times I get a request, don't really know the song, and can Google it, pull up the words and chords and play it on the spot. It has probably more than paid for itself in tips just with this alone.
