First thoughts - if we have both fully upgraded, there shouldn't be any 
difference in our systems at this point, whether we started from the same 
point or not - agreed?

I guess that it's possible that Acer have done the old trick of selling 
identically named kit but with different chipsets.  Not sure how that could be 
checked without opening the box, and I'm sure that neither of us want to at 
the moment.
