Show Me, Don’t Tell Me
From the misty hollars of the Ozarks to the fruited plains of the Corn Belt, from the sophisticated, cosmopolitan boulevards of St. Louis to the stinking, ignorant backwater of Kansas City, Missourians don’t like to make a big fuss over themselves, no sir. They don’t need some gigantic screen or ridiculously huge hard drive or super-flashy video card. That’s for those Fancy Dans over in Illinois.
No, Missouri will take just fine to the Acer Aspire 6390, which gets the job done without throwing a parade about it. This is no sequined trollop boogieing her spangled bosom in some Branson fleshpot. With its just-big-enough 16” screen, Intel Core 2 Duo Mobile Processor, and 320GB hard drive, it’s the Harry Truman of laptops: unassuming and unglamorous but ready to drop an A-bomb if duty calls. Fortunately, in this case the A stands for Acer. Or maybe Aspire. Definitely not atomic, if you’re worried about that kind of thing.
Salus populi suprema lex esto, say the two talking bears on the Missouri state seal: “Let the welfare of the people be the supreme law.” If you’re wondering why bears are concerned with the welfare of humans, well, that’s just how Missourians are. They look out for each other. And it’s how Acer is, too. Packing features like 4GB of DDR2 SDRAM and integrated 802.11a/b/g/Draft-N WLAN wireless into such an affordable laptop? That shows a commitment to the welfare of the people that even proud Missouri son Michael McDonald would be hard-pressed to match. (What, you don’t know him? He’s your brother.)
Like Missouri, the Acer Aspire 6390 isn’t the biggest, or the most popular, or the prettiest, or the most powerful, or the cheapest, or the most expensive. But it’s a calm, sober, reasonable middle-of-the-road compromise between potency and price, between power and portability. You might even call it a Missouri compromise.
