"Greatest Give You've Ever Given Me" November 20, 2008
Ok, so that was the quote when I gave this gift...who doesn't want to hear that? This little computer is so pretty in the sapphire blue...great for guys and girls. It is small enough that it is truly portable. I researched a lot before I bought this one and decided on this one because of all the great reviews. It comes with a great price for the specs and beat out the other well known brands in customer satisfaction from what I see.
The main complaint I saw on here was the noisy fan. I didn't notice it much at all. Maybe it's because the one on my Gateway is much louder, but it really didn't seem bad at all.
There is a bit of adjustment getting used to the smaller screen and the slightly smaller keyboard (you may want a mini mouse). However, the LCD is very clear and looks great. The battery life blows me away. I've had 6 laptops (Dell, Gateway, HP, CTX, Toshiba) and none ever even came close to the battery life on this one. That's what I mean when I say battery life combined with the size makes this a truly portable computer. You could throw this in a large purse or a briefcase or bookbag. There are neoprene sleeves and min laptop cases for sale on Amazon thatwould go well with this. We haven't decided yet which we will purchase, but I definitely think one is needed because you will want to tote this around every where you go. Great, great product!!
One day and already I love it! November 20, 2008
One day into my Aspire and I really love it. For starters, the wireless range is so much greater than my old laptop. Formerly, I was having trouble grabbing the signal from upstairs. Now, I have a great connection and all my neighbors'networks are visible too. The weight is amazing, the resolution is fine and it does everything I need. The XP software works just like on the big units. The mousepad is surprisingly easy to use. If you don't like hitting the left button, you can just tap on the pad for the same result.
Drawbacks: My wife thinks everything is too small in the smaller screen. (I wear reading glasses anyway). You only see about 60% of what is visible on a standard laptop, though side-to-side it's the same. The unit has fingerprint marks all over its beautiful little case. But, in my opinion, all of these are minor in comparison with the ease of use and portability of this unit.
In short. It's fun. I'd recommend it.
 Excellent Computer for the Price November 20, 2008
Positives:
Small, it goes virtually everywhere with me and the 6+ hour battery life allows me to pull it out whenever I need to work or have a minute to surf.
Large HD and a lot of memory for an affordable price.
Clear screen.
Lightweight and compact.
Short boot time. Acer boasts 15 seconds, and I have yet to have it actually boot that quickly, but it is definately up and ready to go in less than 30 seconds.
Short wake up time. Computer is set to automatically hibernate when the screen is closed. It takes a very short time upon "waking up" the computer for it to be up and ready to go again.
Negatives:
I knew it when I bought it, but there is no internal CD drive. I didn't think I would need it, but later purchased an external drive because virtually all software still comes on CD or DVD.
Small screen sometimes makes reading webpages difficult when the webpages are optimized for larger screens.
I am very happy I purchased this computer and would again if I had a choice.
Soooo Cool! November 20, 2008

I'm so impressed with this little machine. Quality is great. Battery life is fantastic. I use it all day and charge it at night; getting about 7 hours. Built in wireless worked immediately. I was concerned about the keyboard but not now; no problem typing. I prefer to attach a small usb travel mouse but not absolutely necessary. 160GB drive is more than sufficient. Office 2007, Dreamweaver suite, etc. works great with excellent performance. Very impressive startup time. It draws a crowd when I bring it out at the office. Everyone in the family wants one now!
Great little machine November 19, 2008
If you are looking for a netbook with a 6-cell battery, huge hard drive and has the added benefit of looking great too, I would highly recommend the Acer Aspire One. I bought this for my wife and she loves it! The keyboard is little, but I touch type quickly so that wasn't a problem. The only things I would change is the screen (just a tad too small. If you feel this might be the case with you as well, try the MSI Wind) and the trackpad(doesn't really grip well, buttons are in an odd place making me use 2 hands). Seriously, a great, uber-portable computer!
