The Acer Aspire line of laptops are a series of personal computers for casual household use by Acer Inc. a Taiwanese multinational electronics and hardware company. They were introduced to the market in 1999 with the Aspire 1151.

Acer Aspire laptops cover a range of tasks from essential function to high performance. They have been compared to other laptops such as Asus’ Transformer Book Flip, VivoBook and Zenbook, Dell's Inspiron and XPS, HP's Pavilion, Spectre and Envy, Lenovo's IdeaPad, Samsung's Sens and Toshiba's Satellite.

Acer Aspire laptops have many sub series including the Aspire One, Aspire F series, Aspire M series, Aspire P series, Aspire R series, Aspire S series, Aspire TImeline series (discontinued), Aspire V Nitro series, Aspire V series and Aspire VX series.

The Acer Aspire is always marked clearly on the front and back of the display panel with the name Acer. Some models have Aspire in the form of a sticker or emboss on the case sides and near the trackpad. A model and serial number will be located on the bottom of the machine.

If you're able to boot the computer, you can also pull a model number by performing the following:

Press Windows key + R. This will open Run. Alternatively, you can go to Start and search for ‘Run’.
In Run dialog box, type ‘msinfo32’ and hit enter.
Now look for System Model to find the model of the laptop.
