5 out of 5 stars Very portable wtih a good battery life   September 11, 2008
 66 out of 66 found this review helpful

I waited a long time to get one of the new ultraportable laptops as like the other reviewers needed something light, portable but usable. The speed of the laptop is excellent and boots up faster than my full size acer laptop. The battery life is a good 3+ hours when using Word, it was borrowed yesterday during an exercise to type up notes for approx two hours and I was surprised to see the battery still at half full. It also came to the rescue of the organiser when their laptop couldn't connect to a projector, making it handy back up too. The keyboard is full size and has useful fn keys for sound and brightness etc. It works fine with a projector too, making it useful for presentations. Office 2007 is too bulky on the icons for such a small screen, I will switch back to Office 2003 although I did manage to edit a 96 page document with not too much difficulty, you can expand the zoom up to make the text readable.

Overall if you need something for work and are fed up lugging round a full size laptop, this is definitely it. Amaze your colleagues and get one soon!

I was going to buy the Linux version, but chickened out, since I had a lot of windows applications that I thought I might spend hours trying to get to work. For example, the Aspire One Users' website implies that getting your GPRS Dongle to work under Linux is iffy.
Anyway, I pre-ordered my XP Home model (and so got it at a cheaper price than currently) and it has been worth the wait. Easy to set up, boots quite quickly under XP Home (much faster than my XP Pro laptop) and the keyboard and screen quality are very good. Wireless connectivity seems as good around my home as my grown-up laptop.
I've not yet been able to assess the battery life.
The XP version comes with MS Works as well as the trial version of Office 2007, but I've decided to give OpenOffice a try instead.
A geeky check-weigh turns it in at 1040 gm: so just over a kilo.
This fills the bill perfectly for those restricted-space train and cattle-class airline journeys. An all-round good buy.



5 out of 5 stars Absolutely Ace!   September 27, 2008

I'm very happy with this tiny little laptop; very happy indeed! All my software, much of it sophisticated and resource-hungry, works perfectly. No problems installing any software using either my desktop's DVD via Wi-Fi, or using a USB flash drive. Wi-Fi is excellent, with a very sensitive transceiver having much better range than my desktop's card, which is connected to a high-gain antenna! The dual-head graphics is very good indeed, allowing me to plug-into the AV system at work and deliver presentations in any resolution I like, whilst reading my speaker's notes on the One's own screen, so don't worry about the 1024 x 600 limit of the One's screen; it's not a problem. It's so convenient to carry around, and having a large capacity SDHC card inserted gives peace of mind re: backups of important stuff when on the move. This is a triumph of miniaturisation; any smaller would be silly. The keyboard is excellent, the screen bright and sharp, the camera works well in low light too, and I love it!. Sound quality is what one might expect from small speakers; if you want better you'll need bigger and heavier.


5 out of 5 stars An Outstanding Netbook   October 20, 2008

Having been used to 15 or 17 inch laptops for the last few years, this seemed too good to be true. As the owner of 2 x Acer laptops, I was confident in the brand for reliability & value, and the Amazon.co.uk price is VERY competitive.

With a whopping 120Gb hard drive and 1Gb of RAM (expandable to 1.5 - using standard laptop SO DIMM modules), this little beauty is a marvel. CPU runs at 1.6GHz, so doesn't slouch at anything - the Office 2007 package you get (trial sudent/teacher edition - so no Outlook) runs very well. The small 9-inch screen is very clear, and with 3 x USBs you can hook up any device you want - obviously an external DVD/CD RW is a necessary purchase if you need to load programmes/software via that means, 'cos it doesn't have one. This version has XP as the operating system - there is a LINUX version if that's your preference.

I had a Fujitsu-Siemens netbook through work, and I have to say, this is miles better!! About 2 to 2.5 hrs battery life as well, and the wi-fi connection is robust and reliable.

I use this for work, and on the train - it is so compact and portable, I never plan to lug a full-size laptop around in my briefcase/rucksack again!!

Overall, an excellent, well-designed product with huge potential, and priced VERY competitively. Highly recommended



5 out of 5 stars Just great   September 8, 2008
 44 out of 45 found this review helpful

I bought the little machine to store and manage photographs (using PhotoShop album) when on holiday, so opted for the 120Gb XP version. Was immediately impressed by the small size, low weight and bright screen. Unsurprisingly, there is no CD/DVD drive, but XP contains the necessary drivers for external devices, so no problem (I use a Sony USB CD/DVD reader/writer). Software loads easily and runs surprisingly quickly. Not ideal for internet use because of the small screen size and lack of modem (but can use a USB modem for dial-up access), but otherwise, just great. PhotoShop Album works perfectly and files are readily exchangeable with bigger PCs.
Overall, I just love it. Amazing!!
