Acer Aspire One Reviews

Acer Aspire One AOA150-1435 (LU.S040B.214) Netbook.

I feel extremely fortunate to have found one of these great little computers at Costco recently. This computer is perfect for commuters or students because the size is so portable and yet, it is capable of most of the standard computer functions we have come to use in our daily lives.


It weighs just under three pounds (more like 2.2 pounds actually)! It looks and feels solid, not cheap or flimsy at all. My Acer One is a sleek, shiny onyx black color. The keyboard is very close to regular size (in fact it is 89% the size of a regular keyboard),...

I got this about a week ago and LOVE it!  In the fall, I got a desktop, but I always regretted not getting a laptop and this is the perfect companion!  I am going to let the kids use the desktop, but I will still have access to it, if I need it, but I do not anticipate needing it.  I can sit in front of the TV in the evenings and have IMDB at my fingertips, as well as use it for facebook, other websites, e-mail and the like.  I also have one that is white, as it was the only one they had left (paid $248 at bricks-and-mortar Wal-Mart).  I had been eyeing one for months now, reading everything...

My name is Kelly, and I bought this Acer Aspire One laptop for my eleven year old daughter that was entering middle school.  It was cheaper than buying a regular laptop and included everything she needed with the exception of a cd rom drive.  This I picked up for around $40 bucks on ebay. 

This Acer Aspire One notebook does everything that my full size laptop does.  It has 3 usb ports, earphone port, a web cam (wow), wireless capabilities, and so much more.  My husband has said on a number of occasions that if she doesn't want it, he would gladly take it off her hands.  We may be buying...

The Acer Aspire One is a great, compact laptop that anyone would be happy to use. It weighs only 2 pounds and it comes in a variety of great colors (pink, blue, white, black, and copper). I was nervous about getting an Acer, which hasn't been known for being an excellent brand, but I have not been disappointed. It is very handy, as it is so small and so light, it has an Intel Atom processor N270, 533 MHz Dual Channel Memory, 160 GB 5400RPM SATA Hard drive, comes with Windows XP home, a webcam, and AC power adapter and power cord, an external mouse and cover, and best of all, it only costs $298...

It sure looks cute. That's all I know personally, because  I was not able to turn my unit on. It was Acer's customer service, though, that made me sure I had not found my ace in the hole. 

Everyone stops to stare at these computers. They walk through Costco or Target and say to themselves "WOW, I would LOVE to have that!  And it's so cheap!  Would I? Could I? Should I?"

They wonder whether it would do all the laptops that now look like behemoths in comparison need to do for them.  Well the answer to that is yes and no.  Many don't have a cd-rom drive, so if you need one it can't be your...

I am no computer genius or expert. Just a average mom with a teenage daughter.The acer aspire Is the cutest little laptop ever. Very sleek and modern. I know they have upgraded this model and I was lucky enough to get that one!  I bought this at Radio Shack for under 500 Dollars and it was worth every penny. This was the cheapest one they carried and I think it looked the most expensive. Has a one year warranty included and you can all ways upgrade it where ever you buy it. For the price of this I dont see why you would need any extra warranty. If something i sgoing to go wrong it is usually unpreventable...

Even though I am a Mac person, I had to join the PC brigade once I saw the price of the Acer Aspire One drop below $300 at my local Costco. I used to travel with my 12-inch titanium Macbook (they don't make it anymore), which was easy to slip into my carry-on, but it was also quite heavy. This Acer is even smaller (about 7X10) and weighs in at a miniscule 2.2 pounds. It's an amazingly convenient device to take on the road.

The machine fires up surprisingly quickly, but the processor is a bit slow (1.6GH vs. 2.13GH on my new 13-inch MacBook), and you may find yourself waiting a bit for programs...

Aspire One was early to market and has remained the best netbook available...

Windows XP Home Edition SP3 is installed on the models with a name ending in X, or ending in B followed by another letter denoting color.

The HDD is a regular 2.5-in 5400 rpm SATA drive with 80, 120 or 160 GB. With an 8 GB or 16 GB solid-state drive (SSD).

There is also an SD/SDHC storage expansion slot on all models for additional storage (16 GB max. in either slot). Windows XP models treat it as a normal removable drive.

The official ratings for the battery are up to 3 hours for the three-cell, and up to 7...

There are a few things I don't like about my 10.1" Acer, mainly the screen has a serious glare and is therefore very hard to use outside or other brightly lit places.  And I am a Mac die-hard, so it is a bit of a step down for me, though I use Windows at the office, so I am comfortable.

I wouldn't try to run a lot of huge graphics-aps on this, and the screen size would make it very difficut to do much design anyway.  Plus, no CD drive, but my USB flash drive subsitutes just fine.

Otherwise, this is perfect for what I need.  I can get online and email anytime, anwhere I can pick up a wireless...

I cannot say how much I love my Acer One 10" netbook.  I am going out of town on business next month and would not be able to check my email.  I thought I'd better try to snatch one up since back to school sales are starting soon.  I'm also very pleased that is has Windows XP.  I NEVER EVER want to have to get a PC with Vista!

I also love the fact that it is so small that I can put it in a large purse and carry it around and check email pretty much anywhere.  I have had a Dell laptop before that was atrocious to lug around and the loud fan died pretty quickly.  You don't even realize this...

I was not sure about this mini laptop when my husband wanted to buy one. I had not heard much about Acer but I thought we could give it a try because it was very cheap compared to other laptops. We have had ours for a year now and I still love it! We have another laptop but we always fight over the Acer because it is so much easier to manage than bigger and bulkier laptops. Surprisingly, for its size it has a really long battery life (about 6 hours I think). It is so small it is really easy to take with me if I know I am going to be in a waiting room or something for a while. i have even carried...

This netbook is so cute! And it's extremely light to carry around. I keep mine in my purse since it is so small and this keeps it very handy when I'm on the go. I can download pictures from my camera in just a few seconds.

The Acer Aspire One is super fast and I've never had any problems connecting to the Internet with the installed WiFi card. I just recently got mobile broadband, and even that was simple and easy to get started with. I recently took my Acer netbook on a flight and had very good results with the onboard WiFi. I also used it for my travel journal while I was on vacation.

The smaller...

 a great netbook for under $300 the acer aspire one is the netbook for anyone. Dont be fooled by its small size with a 1.6 GHZ prosesser 1GB on ram and a 160 GB hard drive its got plenty of resourses for all your web surfing needs even movies are fun to watch on its 10.1 inch LED display at 1024X600. ive even played high end games with no problem. The only drawback is that it dosent have a cd drive but if you have a desktop computer and a thumb drive you can transfer any media you wish. in addition to the above mentioned features it has a VGA out,headphone & microphone ports, ethernet port, built...
