It’s not a real Ferrari because it’s not on fire

This reply section is amazing.
they should have just rearranged it to rAce

I bet you could get it .5mz added to the clock speed for each flame sticker added.

Imagine playing Outrun 2006, an officially licensed Ferrari game, on a 2005 Ferrari laptop.
Top tier top gear
Glad you realize a Windows version of that game exists!
I love how they just assumed anyone with this laptop would be using the dollar and euro signs just as often as the arrow keys
Well if they had the money to buy it they had to be rich and have a business or something.
The euro sign was actually a big issue, there was no button with the euro even as secondary function.
This was a really useful button back in 2005 when the euro was relatively new.
@Thomas Foster Then your priorities are in the wrong if you thought it was a good idea to waste money on this thing
Well there are rich people that would never buy something like this. Generally people with lots of money are also careful with their money. That is why they are rich in the first place. It is far more common for people with medium to low income to spend money on junk. It depends on how you got rich. If you are pop artist or actor then perhaps you are more willing to splurge on luxury items like this but then again it is not uncommon to hear about such people with financial difficulties.
Euro and dollar signs were an Acer thing, I guess. My very first computer was an old Acer laptop and it had those keys in the exact same spot. One curious thing is that the euro sign acted wierdly when I was playing Mugen games, like it would make some characters do some wierd things I was never able to do otherwise.
So, is this just a more expensive Hot Wheels computer?
Ha! Yeah, when you put it that way...
Wow
Well i guess it is
Hot Wheels computer 2.0

When I heard the xp startup sound it felt like a ghost passed through me
😂😂😂😂
i miss the xp days
I still get to hear it regularly
A Windows XP laptop is something I just keep around because it's windows XP man
I heard my entire childhood in 3 seconds
I had one of these :D Got it dirt-cheap when in college. My favorite feature was that i could put a hot cup of coffee next to that exhaust port on the left in the morning. And in the afternoon it would still be hot :D
Cheers for being resourceful.
That's just expert level problem solving right there
Thanks for not using a microwave to warm your coffee.

The rubbery bits are melting just like a real Ferrari of that era!
Manufacturers had a very nasty fetish for covering everything in that vile rubbery stuff back then. I've had loads of things with that crap on over the years and every one of them is sticky and horrible now :(

I BOUGHT a FERRARI?????????
@@GamerBronyEs Or: I bought a Ferrarri for $2,000!
The F1 team was sponsored by Acer during the early 2000s which is why there's only F1 images as it was a collaboration between the two. Also you need to understand that this would have come out straight after Ferrari just won 5 back to back world titles so people would have wanted them so bad.
Also for 2001, Prost ran with Acer branded Ferrari engines.
They also had a pretty big partnership with AMD... Until last week .-.
and the logo looks like scuderia ferrari, the racing team not the car company
@Re Up Probably because all Ferrari road cars have the SF badge on the front wing/fenders too I think
"straight after Ferrari just won 5 back to back world titles so people would have wanted them so bad"
Um, you might be projecting just a *bit* there, bud. F1 racing's plenty cool and all, but I doubt there were legions of race fans pissing their pants with excitement for the opportunity to spend $2,000 on a late 90s gaming laptop with Ferrari stickers. There'll always be hardcore fanatics but it's not like they're going to buy 10 laptops each.
"you need to understand"
Right back atcha. You also failed to mention how Acer's primary marketplace was the US, where F1 racing is a very distant second to NASCAR in popularity.
This laptop give me nostalgia, i remember when my dad wanted this laptop so much because that ferrari logo haha. early to mid 2000s definitely the most fun times. Games, cartoon shows, MTV, technology etc
I completely agree there, the early 2000's were a ton of fun. I remember just messing around in ms paint, writing fanfictions out of my bedroom in notepad, and just watching movies on my Dell Dimension 3000. Wasn't exactly a fast machine, but it did pretty much what I wanted it to. 2012 was a huge turning point for me because that's when I got my eMachines computer, which completely DESTROYED the Dell Dimension 3000, and blew my mind. It's the reason I'm as into tech as I am now, and why I built myself a gaming computer using parts that add up to a good 700 - 800 dollars now. Basically what I'm getting at is that if that old Dell computer running Windows XP wasn't ever given to me when my mom upgraded to a computer running Vista, I probably wouldn't be vibing with friends in Sea of Thieves at 100+ fps on high - max settings today.
That's such a dad thing to want lol

It's gonna be so fucking weird when we start seeing MacBooks and shit start to be considered retro tech...
@@CallanElliott macbooks ARE retrotech 😂
@@CallanElliott The first Macbooks are only a year newer than this....
@@CallanElliott The White Core 2 Duo 13' MacBooks (then Core Duos) came around in 2006 and ran until mid 2010. I still see Early 09s and newer in coffee shops and stuff, but those are most definitely begining to be retro in some eyes. Also the 2009 Mac Minis now only go for $50 dollars WITH the power supply.
Three years ago I traded an iPad 2 for my dream computer since childhood, a dual processor 1.8GHz PowerMac G5. We is getting old.
The car our moms drove us to school in can now have historical plates.
been looking around for any of these ferrari branded laptops but they are now RARE AND COLLECTIBLE
i have a story with the ferrari laptop
i was 12 yrs old and my father came back from work with this computer
i played gta vice city driver and a lot of other games
Great story bro
thank you for telling us ur story :)
Nostalgic story man 😭
I almost cried, holy shit
I heard of gta vice city but not its latest expansion, gta vice city driver.
I wanted this laptop so badly back in 2005 :D
I wanted the Asus Lamborghini back in the day, settled for the ASUS A8JS 14.1" graphics beast.

I'd keep using the Lenovo.. I have a T61 I still use. It's a great laptop though
My dad was given one of these by his work back in the day. Had many happy times playing with it when I was away from my home gaming PC. Had no idea it was worth $2k though!

Can we get an LGR episode on the Kensington lock, maybe an 'oddware'? Do consumer products actually need this crap today, and why the hell is Kensington's the only one?
Consumers don't need them. They're for schools, libraries, internet cafes, and so on.
There also exists the Noble Wedge lock which Dell uses.
@Atlas 51232 I got an even better fix. Don't leave the damn thing alone or out of your sight. Besides, those locks are easily lockpicked or cut off. Meaning for the price of a 10 dollar set of tubular lock impressioning tools, I can easily and quickly take your 2,972 dollar laptop home. And yes, I converted the euros into USD.

I still have Acer Ferrari branded monitor my mother is still using it, working flawlessly more than 15 years 😀. Fantastic design.
As a racing fan, I would buy this on the basis that it's based on Ferrari's F1 team, in a interesting era no less as Schumacher was still kicking ass and taking names.

No other reviews reviewing and testing mid 2000's laptops play older need for speed, considering their popularity. So you have my sub just for playing most wanted
There was also an Acer Ferrari One gaming netbook, the thing was awesome and did the job for me at the time. It also had a special port for an external graphics card!
I remember the reviews from this when I was younger. I think one of the reviews said it heats up like an actual Ferrari.
"Ah, man money! It buys things."
LGR, please never change.
Hey mate thanks for the review, you create a really good content.!!!
I retired mine quite a few years ago. I recently resurrected it and other than a BT problem and flaky power connector, it works fine. I bypass the power connector by using the eZ Dock. Good review. Thanks.
Friend of mine used to play/raid World of Warcraft with his Ferrari laptop. Brings back memories. :D
I can see the horrible future of my Alienware. 😭
Horrible present also.
Horrible bill$!!
And i can see a horribile future for my pc too but at least im lucky that i have an a ps 4.
same with my Predator )':
aren't Alienware are well known to be upgradeable?
even the aw17 has to power to run gtx 1080 if you know what you're doing
heck even their old models from 2008 m15x could run 980m
I had one of these when they came out. I loved it.
I used to repair these. A LOT of these. A lot of intermittent faults that would happen when it was hot. The bluetooth ferrari mouse was lovely.
I think the "smiley face" keyboard is supposed to be a more "ergonomic" layout.
And smiley.
@REALBIGBOY997 It is, though. The curve is more natural than a flat keyboard.
@REALBIGBOY997 That's why, though. MS has a curved keyboard just like this that's a "Comfort Curve" ergonomic keyboard. There are lots of similar ones on the market.
Playing a racing game on a Ferrari branded computer. That tickles my brain in a lot of weird ways... but why didn't the system at least come with a steering wheel controller? Man, missed opportunity there.
It's because Thrustmaster at the time had the Ferrari license for making steering wheel acessories. I personally feel Ferrari in the 00's and early 2010's kind of whore out their name, and badge to just about anyone who would pay them the most, as there was even a Ferrari branded iPhone case with nasty smelling cologne in it that had a slight smell of racing fuel, and I know this because one of my coworkers at the time wore it, and it stunk up our store to high hell!
Because it would be expensive and cumbersome and wheels were ugly af and only a small percentage of gamers played racing games on PC w/ wheel
@@CommodoreFan64 Yeah, Ferrari were EA- and Sega-exclusive IIRC back in the 90s and early 2ks, so we never got their awesome cars until much later in the Gran Turismo or Forza series (best console racing sim games, even before the Ferraris).
I bought one of these when it came out and it was a really good laptop. Loved the rubber palmrest
Very cool! I had a Acer Ferrari 3000 back in the day (the very red one), and thought it was a cool machine! Ran XP good for the time and the screen was beautiful!
So...

Doesn’t stand up well now, but I carried that beast around for years, it’s still sitting in my office. And the screen is still amazing on it.

I remember eyeing this Ferrari branded Acer really hard when I was buying my first laptop geared towards gaming. I just didn't have deep pockets for this branded model and I had to go with Acer Aspire 1694 WLMi. Almost same machine. Just silver color and bit lower specs.
But gosh, it was amazing to play Grand Theft Auto 3 and BattleField 2 on a freaking laptop. :D
:edit:
And forgot to mention. That pesky Acer refuses to die. Its still running. I've had multiple computers/laptops after that have gone bust. Either dead screens, dead motherboards.. etc. But not this era Acer. No sir.
I've got the model below that one, the Aspire 3003WLMi. Sempron 3000+ and shitty SiS graphics. Unfortunately it developed video problems with lines randomly appearing until the machine is rebooted.
I bought an acer in 2008, yeah they were hard to kill.
I just got one of these a few days ago! Its in perfect shape because the owner took meticulous care of it, still has the original slot loading drive! My 2 passions being cars and computers when this video came out I knew I needed one. This week I'm looking through my local ad site and see a complete one for sale, in complete disbelief I was finding it locally in way better shape than any ones for sale on eBay! It's my first time getting into the old PC hobby even though LGR always intrigued me to. Thanks a million for posting the recovery disks.

Lol I remember being a kid and buying half life 2 and being very upset because I couldn't get it to run at all on my sisters dell pc. It sucked because back then as a kid you had no idea on that stuff so I had to wait years until they released it on console and even that sucked. Just recently at 24 I finally am able to play it.

@@darkheathen6765 makes it so surreal to realise how far computing and graphics technology has come in the last decade and a half.
I had this laptop when I was growing up. The first day I got it, there was 1 or 2 dead pixels and the left speaker blew. I really loved this laptop though.
They keyboard was really comfortable to use and I liked turning on the Bluetooth every time I wanted to use the mouse.
I bought a used one a few years ago, but the rubber on it was horribly sticky and with a 1 core CPU, there wasn't much I was going to do with it. There was also a problem when plugging in USB keys that would create a short and cut the power.
It ended up in the trash. Sad, because I liked that laptop so much more than my Alienware...
Could have upgraded it on your own. Just like a car it can be rebuilt better, we have the technology
