Bought a V5-571-6726 in September, it did not have a "clearance" or "as-is" tag on it. It appeared to be a fine enough machine. Loaded Windows 8 in December. Does Acer support machines that are 3-6 months old? I bought a machine with Touchpad adjustments, now there are none. I bought a machine with bluetooth, but mouse unpairs itself continually and earpiece usually doesn't pair and the machine can't tell me what's going on. I have tried to ask their support staff and all they do is tell me to load the exact same driver over and over again, taking hours each time, and not fixing it. Lousy Lousy pathetically poor service. Sad Sad Sad.
