 A great computer doesn't have to be big! November 18, 2009

Let me preface this review by stating I am not a computer/tech person. I am a 35 yo housewife and nursing student who needs something that is powerful (fast), small, light and handy that I can take with me everywhere I go. My first stab at reaching that goal was a 10.1" Acer Aspire One over a year ago. I got some good use out of it but grew tired of the limitations and slow speed compared to an awesome desktop at home (my husband IS a computer/tech guy). So I'd been waiting for an 11.6" model to hit the market that actually had true notebook features - not the lame atom processors, etc. It's finally here.
What I like:
-quiet
it is super quiet, fan noise barely audible
-screen is really sharp
the definition and clarity of the screen/graphics are great; color is vivid as well
-keyboard
full size, and also quiet with low profile keys
-handy buttons
there are a lot of handy one-touch type features like one that will black out the screen (could be used to thwart that nosy neighbor in the seat next to you, as well as being a great power saver during downtime)
-setup was easy
it is pretty self explanatory: put battery in, plug in, turn on, follow instructions, uninstall pre-installed garbage.
-speed
it boots up quickly and switching windows or webpages is almost instantaneous
-touch pad
it is matte, slightly textured, and makes for easy use with average sensitivity. It also has some neat extra features where using different strokes across or in a circular motion will switch between windows and zoom in or zoom out... there are several of these and I don't know them all yet. Also, it is not so sensitive that if your thumb pad rubs over it while typing the cursor will jump around - I've had that problem before and I'm glad I don't have it now!
-surfaces
the inside surface hand rest, aside from the touch pad, appears to be a brushed metal type that does not show fingerprints (nice). The outside is typical onyx - it's black with a little bit of barely noticeable sparkly-ness if you look closely.
I have not used the Bluetooth feature yet... need to set that up for my Blackberry Storm. Also am ordering a BT mouse but have seen so many mixed reviews about the available models so will need to do more research.
The computer comes well packaged and had no signs of damage. However, I think the cold made all the sticky plastic protectors leave a gummy residue on the case. It was easy to peel it off though -but initially alarming just the same.
No case or cover - it came with a fabric cover that is similar to the stuff that's used on the bottom of box springs. So if you get this computer, you might as well order a bag/sleeve at the same time.
Windows 7 - works like a charm.
Weight - it's light and easy to handle.
The bottom line: I love it and would highly recommend it. Thanks for reading my review!
Addendum: I wanted to mention how long the battery lasts. I am notorious for rapid battery consumption on all devices (have to take cords with me always) ---this computer is changing that. I take it to school and it is on from 1:30-8:00 intermittently running MS office apps like Word, Excel and Powerpoint, plus an internet browser (I use Firefox). The use is not constant, but it's still on and ready the whole time. I don't even bother taking the cord with me, becuase on average after this usage I still have between 70-75% battery remaining when I get home! Amazing!
A perfect replacement for a laptop November 21, 2009

I got this for my daughter who is in college. She did not want to carry the bulkier Macbook Pro. She needed a Netbook variety for her daily use. After extensive research, I decided it was better to to go with something that she can use beyond her undergradtuate years. I ordered the blue color. This had the perfect combination of technical and functional specifications.
The product was on pre order for three weeks. Amazon mentioned that it will arrive by Dec 1st and it arrived on Nov 17th. Amazon does set low expectations and tries to beat it :)
Now to the product itself - the quick setup guide said it will take 30 minutes to set it up. It took less than 10. Windows 7 was up and running in a jiffy. Prompted me to select the netowrk. (which was refreshing for a change, as I expect this behaviour generally from only Apple products).
The processor speed is awesome and can do more than traditional office productivity and web browing activities. Loaded statistics software and it blazes. My daughter will be using it for running complex complex graphics and stats algorthims for her neuro research projects.
The keyboard, screen is beautiful. The fullsize keyboard has lots of one touch special funtions that makes navigation easy. I miss the trackball. I have not gotten used to the touchpad. The pinch and swivel motions does not feel natural to me (I am not an iPhone user).
The screen is sharp. HD like quality. It is not full matt screen, as one can still see reflection. The web camera is OK.
The laptop has enough ports for normal use - USB, HDMI, Ethernet, audio jacks etc.
Battery - it is close to the advertised life. Gave me about 6 1/2 hours of moderate to heavy use. Still new, want to test it further before making judgement on this. Still a vast improvment over traditional laptops.
Weight is just awesome. The specs of this power netbook puts in the laptop class and still it weighs less than half. Of course, if you add an external DVD drive, it will increase it somewhat. Still this is a sleek, clean, light yet powerful Netbook!!
excellent multi purpose use November 23, 2009

Plenty of power and memory. Windows 7 runs extremely well. Set up was a breeze. This computer is faster and more powerful than my desktop. Good things do come in small packages. The screen is quite easy to view despite the small size. It's lightweight and easy to carry with me. That was a concern since my old laptop was very heavy and burden to take along. It also runs very cool and doesn't burn my lap as many laptops are prone to do.
The only negative is the the sounds from the speakers is quite weak. I usually use headphones to listen to sound since with any background noise the speakers are inadequate.
Fast and Reliable January 11, 2010

I purchased this because of it's size and weight. I got another notebook, a Lenovo T61 with faster processor so i decided to have a small computer comfortable enough to read e-books and browse thru the internet. I wanted something much faster than a regular netbook with Atom processors. This notebook (I won't consider this a netbook because of it's power) save my project. My Lenovo crushed on me with 4 days before project deadline. Out of desperation, I loaded Autocad on this computer, attached it to a 20 inch screen, no problem. I hardly noticed the difference in speed. The Acer handled the software easily. it's totally Compatible with windows 7. Project submitted on time. This notebook also runs Adobe photoshop without any problem too. I got this computer for $599 last month. Now the price is even higher. I'm not surprised. This computer is really a good buy.
Great balance of size and power January 4, 2010

After pretty extensive research I landed on this one. I wanted something really portable yet not stripped down. What I liked was the Intel Core Duo processor, 4 gig of ram, hdmi output, bluetooth, card reader, 320 gig hard drive and Windows 7. On top of all that, the 8 hour battery life is icing on the cake. Really pleased so far. No issues with my router at all. Really find the hdmi output useful for streaming netflix...a real breeze to connect.
