Acer Aspire One AOD255-2691 10.1-Inch Netbook (Diamond Black) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This one is replacing a 2-yr-old Acer with a 9" screen, 1GB RAM/160GB HDD which I bought at Best Buy for $300+! I leave my full-size laptop at home because the Acer's more portable. I don't install hardly any applications on it; I save that for the home laptop. I only use it for internet access on location or on the road, and I can offload digital images from my camera's memory cards while traveling. It has a built-in SD card slot, and I also pack a USB CF card reader. This way I don't have to bring/buy extra cards for extended trips/vacations. Once home, I connect my Lacie Rugged portable HDD to it to offload the images, then connect the Lacie to the home laptop to process the photos. At home, the Acer resides in the garage as a utility laptop for internet browsing, Googling info for projects, user manuals, etc. I've never had a problem with the first one, and this one's even faster, bigger, brighter, yet still small enough to bring anywhere without weighing you down. Compared to my iPad, it's about the same dimensions except about twice as thick. Yet it's has full laptop functionality for less than half the price. It just doesn't have the iPad's coolness factor, and the touch screen. The only complaint I have is that the keyboard surface is so flat and smooth, that it's difficult to discern the touch pad and the individual keys by feel.
