Great Laptop!!! August 18, 2008

I've had this great little laptop for about 5 days now and love it!! It is very well put together and has a great screen. The keyboard works great for my 6 finger hunt and peck style of typing.
Having bought the MS Windows XP version for $399.99 was a great bargain. Having 1.6GHz CPU, 1GB of RAM and 120GB HDD make the specs on this little laptop just as good as any full size entry level laptop.
I've downloaded some programs and installed them without any trouble. I also needed to install a program from a DVD that I have. Since this laptop doesn't have a DVD-Rom Drive I installed Alpeak's CD-Anywhere Free to create a virtual CD/DVD-Rom Drive. I then installed it on my desktop computer that has a DVD-Burner and created a ISO file. I then copied the ISO file to USB Flash Drive and plugged that into my Aspire One and with CD-Anywhere I "Mounted" the ISO file and installed my program with no problems.
I've backed up some of the DVD's that I own to Xvid AVI files and put these on my new little laptop. They have all played back on this great machine with out any problems.
I also installed Miro and download a bunch of POD Cast from them and they too all played fine.
I'm a truck driver and bought this laptop for it's portability and specs. Anyone that needs a great little laptop look no further you've found the on you want.

It's so fun to use this umpc. I can feel the music sound on my hand when I wrote this article. The speaker sound is not that bad as I concerned. The 8.9inch screen is seem to be little small. it is good to see on web site. 1024 wide size is good to see the whole size of web page. The typing is not easy to compare to normal size of lap top. But, It feels so good to touch to typing keyboard. I didn't try yet for the performance of graphic card. It seems ti be OK for me as web surfing, watch the movie. It is only matter of screen size. Today, My first day for using this machine. I ordered last friday, For free shipping I took the ONE wednesday. It is only 5days to ship to my place. Thank Amazon.com for fast shipping.

You will love the simplicity. You should covet the challenge of getting this little baby to ROCK ! If you deserve this great Netbook, you know it... come on. Get it, you will not be sorry. Small, great design, great OS
Amazing little guy August 7, 2008

I bought the blue version of this Acer One with 512mb ram and 8GB SSD at a local store instead of this white one because for a clumsy and lazy guy like me, it's gonna turn black in a few weeks. This thing is super small compared to the pictures. Lets say a regular piece of paper will swallow it whole. I am a windows guy because I'm used to it, but I am starting to love Linux on this netbook.
There is an "advanced" mode on this netbook to enable all the features of Linpus such as add and removing programs. To do this, open a terminal(Files > My Documents to open the File Manager. Then go to File > Terminal.) and type in "xfce-setting-show" without the quotation. Click on Desktop to get to the Desktop Preferences and click on the Behavior tab. Now check the "Show desktop menu on right click" option and close the window. Now you will see a menu every time you right click on the desktop. You can also add icons of the newly installed programs to the desktop; YouTube can help you with that.
With the netbook in advanced mode, it is so much fun to use; it's the same as a fully loaded laptop. The screen is very bright and nice, the lid is nice and glossy but can attract finger prints initially. The keyboard is definitely better than the Asus EEE PC that I've used before. However, the touchpad buttons on the sides take some time to get used to. The Speaker is on the bottom of the laptop so don't expect much out if it because it's not that loud, but i use headphones so that doesn't bother me. WiFi seems to be stable and has not disconnect since the day i bought the netbook(a week ago). The Intel Atom CPU is better than i thought, i can multitask on this netbook with no problems. Surfing, listening to music on Amarok and installing a program at the same time with ease. Linux will boot up in under 15 seconds every time, and programs open responsively - very speedy little guy.
The included OpenOffice is very nice, I prefer that over MS Office any day. If space is a problem, the Acer One has a dedicated SDHC storage expansion slot to add SD/HC cards in and also a 5-1 card reader for additional SD or other cards. RAM can be upgraded to a MAX of 1.5GB using the included 512MB stick and another 1GB stick, but you don't need more than 512MB if you plan on using the included Linux OS. The only disappointing thing about this netbook is the battery life. Though not really bad, it is still short for a netbook. You get about 3 hours max on minimal usage, over 2 hours for watching a video and almost 2 hours on high performance with WiFi on. I am planning to buy a 6 cell or additional 3 cell battery later on; that will solve the battery life problem. The quality on this netbook is top notch!
Initially I planned to install windows XP, but now I don't think I will because I am having so much fun with Linux and Windows XP is just dull looking and boring. But that's just a personal preference of course. With a 3 cell battery, the Acer One Windows XP 120GB HDD will give you 2.5 hours as opposed to 3 hours on this version. If you wish to install XP, you can plug in an external USB CD drive or make a bootable flash drive(google for instructions).
Enjoy your netbook =)
Is it possible to be in love with a laptop? August 4, 2008

hello!
I had bought the asus eee pc 4 gb. I got it and at first, I absolutely LOVED it. Then, the webcam started messing up, the voice command was very sketchy, and the internet wireless was also sketchy. So, I returned the Asus and tried out this little laptop. Right from the start, it looked much more solid than the Asus, and just like a higher quality laptop. I brought it home and it picked up my wireless right away. The startup is VERY fast--probably about the same amount of time as the Asus (20 seconds) or less.
The setup and programs are much clearer than the Asus ones even though they both use Linux. The webcam is also easier and seems to be better than that of the Asus. Other things included on the Acer are: a messenger program, lots of fun games, email, Openoffice 2.3 (a writng program--like microsoft word), powerpoint presentations, and address book,calender, spreadsheets, an RSS reader (for reading the news I presume--i havent tried it out yet). This little computer is much easier to type on than the asus eee pc is, and is about 2 lbs. too. It's still very small, but easy to use and a larger screen than the asus eee pc. The Acer is VERY fast. Anyways, I LOVE THIS COMPUTER! I really don't realize how small it is when I'm actually using it-- it really feels like a normal sized pc. :) bibi, and good luck with your search!
