The Acer would have much better gaming performance - it comes with a 8600M GT, the Sony just seems to have integrated graphics, wouldn't be any good for games at all (except old ones).

Those acers are supposed to be very nice for the cash. Any chance you could post up the specs of each?

Acer support is complete rubbish, whereas Sony have fantastic support. That would be the selling point for me anyway.
