acer aspire one review

jkOnTheRun has a set of two articles describing 5 things he likes about Acer Aspire One and 5 things he dislike about it.

Among the Acer Aspire One likes are

  • build quality – very good
  • display – excellent
  • battery life – 3 hours of run-time with WiFi on (not bad at all)
  • storage expansion
  • Linpus Lite environment

Among the dislikes are

  • Linpus Lite implementation – no option for adding applications
  • mouse buttons – loud and inconvenient
  • open RAM slot isn’t easy to access (who cares about this one?)
  • SSD isn’t that quick and external screen resolution

Even with dislikes, jk concludes: I’ve had the device for under 24 hours at this point. To be fair, we’re talking about a $379 netbook that will surely make some people very happy. I’m not globally condemning the device in any way, shape or form. I’m simply sharing my opinions which of course are based on my computing needs and requirements. If I had the $399 unit with XP and the hard drive, I might feel differently as a few of my disappointments would likely disappear.
