Review Summary

this is the best deal of all of the netbooks.. it has great specs, good speed, nice webcam.. etc…

the only disadvantage is that it has poor cooling system just like lennovo. bought one yesterday and after 30 mins of using, it hangs or dead and when ive touched the back of the netbook its so hot as hot as the oven toaster. i hope that acer could fix this fan problem soon

    The Aspire One is an 8.9" netbook with an Intel Atom N270 processor and GMA950 integrated graphics just like every other netbook out there. With identical hardware, you would assume to get roughly the same performance out of it, and you would assume correctly. Features There is still a measure of variation between different netbooks and brands, most notably the appearance, but quality aspects are naturally also important, as well as connectivity, hard drive, RAM and...

    The Acer Aspire One is a magnificent machine with only a few minor downsides. If you’re concerned about the lack of upgrade capabilities on the netbook, the massive Aspire One fanbase will be able to help you out. Several user-made applications have been developed by users to eliminate some problems specific to the Aspire One. One particularly notable bit of freeware is a program designed specifically to reduce fan noise from the machine, available here . At... Read more

    The Acer Aspire One has done really well in the marketplace out selling every other 8.9'' netbook. The keyboard is large for the size of the netbook and it has a very slim design at only 1.1'' thick and it's really light weighing in at only 2.2 lbs. The bezel around the screen could have been used to accommodate a larger monitor; however, a 10'' netbook Acer Aspire One available . The SSD option is only available on the Linpus Linux Lite version; however, given the speed... Read more

    Since the first news of Acer’s Aspire One, the netbook created quite a stir and impatience amongst laptop enthusiasts. It’s definitely been worth the wait (not that certain aspects couldn’t have been better). Let’s start with the negative. The lack of access to upgrade RAM at home will undoubtedly make more experienced users stray over to the Eee rather than the Aspire One. 3G should have been in included in all netbooks; the netbook of the year will presumably...

    Acer became a member of the ever-expanding mini-notebook club with the Linpus Linux Lite version of the Aspire One , which we praised for its intuitive interface, fast boot time, and comfortable keyboard. The company follows up that Linux-based machine with the Windows XP–powered Acer Aspire One, a netbook with a nearly identical design that runs Microsoft’s most popular operating system. This model sees a bump in RAM from 512MB to 1GB and swaps a small 8GB... Read more

    I use this computer mainly with my gps for mapping 2-tracks & trails. It's a great portable computer that can easily be carried practically anywhere. The 6 cell battery is an added benefit, providing long run time. Read more

    I'm a middle school science teacher as well as the yearbook advisor, and I needed some inexpensive wireless computers for my students to access the internet. These computers are reliable, fairly fast and easy to use. The screens are small so doing any kind of work on them for prolonged periods can be tedious. Read more
