Acer Aspire ONE A150 > Reviews

Advantages: Cheap Powerfull machine
Disadvantages: No Optical drive

I have had my Acer Aspire One for about 3 months and it has never failed me. I will review everything that should be considered before buying. Speed: Well this depends on the model you are going to buy, I own the Linux version with 1GB of ram, which is probably the fastest AAO you are going to get, it really does fly. Because Linux uses very little prossesing it means that all of the application will run with little effort. The ram is upgradeable ... Read review

Advantages: Small, light, comparativley powerful
Disadvantages: No external DVD drive provided. Protective sleeve

I purchased this laptop for my wife to do do her training work on, also she didn't want to carry my luggable! We went for the 1GB RAM, 120GB HDD Linux model in Blue for about £250. Out of the box its a good looking machine, the glossy blue finish is nice, but instantly prone to fingerprint marks. It feels well built and durable. I comes with what some would call a protective sleeve, in a way it does protect but really all it protects is from ... Read review

Advantages: Small for travelling, Fast, Stylish, Great Battery, Webcam Built in.
Disadvantages: No Cd Drive:(

...specifications: I went for the Acer that was on offer so the specs are not the best available in the range but are perfect for me. 1GB of RAM 1.6GHZ Atom Processor 8GB hardrive plus an extra 8GB on a memory stick The extra memory is easily installed into the side of the net book, there is a slot specifically designed for adding extra memory. It will only accept SD card so no others can be used as extra memory however there is another slot ... Read review

When I first looked for a Netbook I was unsure about buying this one as it did not have windows on it but i needn't have worried, I have had no problems with it.

Advantages: Price, performance, choice of colours
Disadvantages: sound

...me, i'm shiny!' but the acer aspire one has got to be the most reliable, sturdy and best value netbooks around. Starting of, as i usually do, with a summary of the style of the product, the acer aspire one won't win any beauty paegents, but it is functional in it's design. Sure, i'm not a fan of the whole gap-between-screen-and-hinge look, but it works. The netbook has no real standout design features, but it isn't the ugliest netbook around (step ... Read review

Advantages: Size, ability to access various internet browsers and word processing
Disadvantages: Small memory compared to conventional laptops

This laptop was bought in order to aid my study as I needed to be able to access the internet and write word documents as part of my A level course. I use it with mobile broadband and it is compatible and provides a good internet service, if a little slower than its larger counterparts. The laptop is attractive and portable-I have received many comments on its appearance. It is light compared to larger laptops so is perfect for carrying on public ... Read review

Disadvantages: No DVD drive, low battery life, gets hot, Linux crashes if modified too much

...these factors? Yes, perfectly. The Acer Aspire One is, in my opinion, one of the best netbooks on the market. I grabbed of these for my birthday, when it was relatively new off Amazon. I got the version that had 120 GBs of hard drive memory, with Linpus Linux Lite. This edition of Linux was built specifically for the Aspire One, and it was extremely simple and easy to use. With an eye catching interface, a quick search bar and brilliantly obvious ... Read review

Advantages: CHEAP, DURABLE, DOES EXACTLY WHAT IT SAID ON THE TIN
Disadvantages: GLOSSY SCREEN, BATTERY LIFE, POOR SPEAKERS

I bought this laptop because I needed a cheap, reliable way to get online. At first It had Linpus Linux OS which to be honest is a waste of time however it was easy to use but it lacked in compatibility to other software and hardware, that is when I realised I should have payed a bit extra to get the XP version. I bought a cheap copy of windows xp from ebay and installed it using an external cd-rom drive, which was a lot easier than I was expecting ... Read review
