if i define this netbook in simple terms,it is:
Very inexpensive(£180)- Reasonable features
Its not one of the best netbooks available in the market but i bet you,you can never find the netbooks in that reasonable price with so good features.i will discuss all of its features in quite detail.hope u don't get bored.
First and the best feature of this netbook is its DECENT KEYBOARD. Almost all the netbook manufacturers lost their head in making the keyboard of their netbooks.look at the netbooks from HP and other big names,their keyboards are so small that many people cant write large documents on them.on the other hand Acer aspire one got a very comfortable keyboard which gives you the natural feeling of input.
The second most important feature of this netbook is thats it ULTRA-PORTABLE.it is so small that you can carry it anywhere you want.its not only about its size but also its weight,it just weighs 2.2 lbs.so carrying it while shopping or on picnic will never bother you.
3 USB ports and 2 SD-CARD slots make it very powerful for work environment.Builtin 3G and WIMAX,but it depends upon from where you bought it,some of the products include it some don't.ACER ASPIRE ONE has many models.im talking here about the features which most of them include,i personally have A110L which has SSD type storage and its capacity is 8GB,but with 2 expansion slots available it doesn't bother me.it has a RAM of 512 MB which i feel sometimes,is not enough for some of the applications.most of the models has 1.6 GHZ intel ATOM processor with which im quite satisfied.
10.1 in (26 cm), 8.9 in (23 cm) 1024×600 LCD.i have the latter and is quite comfortable for me.0.3 MP Suyin buitin webcam is also included.
Now lets get back to reality.why is it so cheap while having so many features?.well what i found was two reasons apart from the processor and RAM and SSD capacity which are quite suitable if not very great.Those two things are
Terrible touchpad and mouse buttons- Battery life
The tiny touchpad and mouse buttons(on a flimsy rocker ball) are very painful to use.You need to really press it hard to make it work.i found it so irritating that i had to buy a separate USB mouse to cope with my work.
The other setback of this netbook is its small battery life.my netbook model ihas 3-cell: 2.200 Ah battery which doesn't give me more than 2 hours back-up time.but you can have a large sized battery of 6-cells to have more than 5 hours back-up time which is great.
