Actually now you remind me Acer had the Vic Ed contract and had lots of problems. Acer have had reliability issues since the mid 90's. You would think they would have fixed their game by now !!

The ASUS deal was a different Federal deal. I cant remember if it was direct with ASUS or through a partner. As mentioned though I am pretty sure it was mainly a problem of cutting corners with cheaper components on the mid to low end models to get the price down. The higher quality ASUS components have been very good.
