At my high school we have a large stack of Acer comps that we are going to put into a bus as a mobile computer lab. They are old (P3) but they will do what we need them to do and just out of curiosity I opened one of them up. The cables were VERY neatly twist tied off at different convienient locations and all the wires went around or under something so there was absolutely no clutter. I was just amazed at that considering the Dells at the school have wires going every direction possible.
I also saw that the Acers had better quality parts (by far not high-quality but better than the junk Dell puts in theirs.)

I've really only checked out Acer monitors and laptops but they seem to make really nice quality computers and comp. parts. My monitor is Acer and it is one of the best I've seen for the price.
Overall I think Acer is better than the higher big-name companies but they are still a manufacturer and I would rather go with building a computer.
