Acer Aspire ONE A110-AB

--Background-- My wife has always moaned that she could never get onto the family PC as it was always being used by either my kids or myself. After doing a bit of research, she convinced me to buy her the Acer Aspire One netbook which she would use for web browsing and writing simple documents. I was a bit sceptical of the device, after all, to me it was just a cheap laptop. But, alas, she won and off I went to Currys armed with my credit card to begrudingly buy her one. --In the box-- The box in which the Aspire comes is very small. You'd be able to fit it under your arm and carry it no ... more

I only recently got this product, but so far i have found it a really good quality netbook. I am a student so for me it is important to have a laptop which is samll enough and light enough to carry around to lectures and seminars, and this one is a first class netbook.

It also has a built in card reader, and a built in webcam. It comes in a variety of colours (i have the blue one), and retails for around £199-250 depending on ... more

Okay so this computer (which i am writing on now) is not the largest of products. It doesn't really cope with the amount of tabs i have open in my "Opera" web browser either. But what i do know is that it becomes one of the easiest things to use since UN-sliced bread. When you turn it on it doesn't make a fancy noise like all Vista/Windows 7 systems do, as it runs on the Original Master "Windows XP" which works a treat. It is simple yet elegant and can cope with every day things like Microsoft Office, windows media/movie maker and a bunch of other relatively "cool" programs. However, these are ... more

Many people reading this may have already had a look at the Asus eee PC. Although it's a little unfair to draw comparisons, it's difficult not to, as the Aspire One probably wouldn't even be here if Asus hadn't started the ball rolling. The Aspire is a very good looking little laptop, and amazingly compact. It's about half the size of a standard laptop. With an 8.9" screen, it's easy to think you'll be straining your eyes, but it's just not so! The screen is a dream to look at, with vibrant colours and absolute clarity. I'm not suggesting you should watch all your Hollywood blockbusters on it ... more
