  • Abstract:  The Acer Aspire One cuts a pretty good figure. Price wise, it is definitely an interesting alternative as this Linux-based pocket-sized machine that can be used on the go almost anywhere (until the battery runs out 2.5 hours later) retails for only $3...

  • There is a lag at times, No package manager, Default player does not support DivX video format, Wi-fi connectivity.
  • More and more Netbooks seem to be bundled with Windows XP nowadays, as the first-gen Netbooks werent powerful enough to run XP smoothly. This is a major disadvantage because Linux worked even on low powered machines. Also, to keep the pricing low, it...

  • Acers price point for the One places it in the midst of some interesting devices and dangerously close to impulse buy territory. With a new suggested retail price of $329 (for versions with a 120GB mechanical hard drive), the Aspire One will be a low-...

  • 8/18/08 - With the escalating costs of many netbook systems, it is a relief to see the Acer Aspire One offering a very compact and well priced portable. While it may not have the Windows XP operating sytem and relatively limited battery life, its solid...

  • Attractive, slim design; big keyboard for such a small system; affordable.
  • Only 512MB of RAM limits performance; wimpy battery life; no Bluetooth.
  • The Acer Aspire One is easily the best of the current under-$400 Netbooks, but its meager allotment of memory and tiny battery limit its appeal. Specifications: Processor: Intel Atom (1.6 GHz); RAM installed: 512 MB DDR2 SDRAM; Weight: 2.2 lbs; See ful...

  • Limited storage space, Cannot add applications easily
  • Mini-notebooks are getting bigger and more elaborate by the day, but Acer enters the crowded market with a simple yet solid miniature laptop for only $379. The Aspire one sports a classic look and its Intel Atom processor gives it a decent amount of po...
