Reviews Acer Aspire One AOD250-1165 10.1-Inch


pros
- After uninstalling Google Toolbar and McAfee and other useless software came with the netbook, it is really fast. 1 GB is enough, if you do that cleanup.
- Thinner than D150 model, very light weight.
- keyboard is small still usable

cons
- touchpad isn't that good, gesture for scroll doesn't work always.
- screen is glossy, but usable. I prefer glossy screen, some people won't like it.

For traveling, its size & weight is perfect. It has sufficient ram & disk size for my (non-gaming) needs, which is Internet use, taking notes in libraries, & writing. Character fonts are extremely sharp, & I'm pleased at the variable screen brightness controls, so that I can use it in dark interiors and outside on sunny days. I'm 100% satisfied.

Pros;

Speed, out of the box (after first set up) is quite fast, boot up time was less then 30 seconds. After removing all the unnecasary junk (original virus program was a memory hog) and did some tweaks in the msconfig program I can boot it up in about 23 seconds x)

Portability, I have had this machine for about a month now and have been able to take it ANYWHERE its very light weight and very compact.

Extras, YAY FOR DOO DADS!! this netbook came with a very nice little 1.3mp camera as a default item and it works like a charm.


Keyboard, Whats the point of having a portabable computer if you can't type on it? do a spreadsheet or two? send an e-mail? Luckily this keyboard is VERY well done including a FULL shift key. Excellent fro browsing (as a matter of fact I'm using it to write this review)

Mouse, If you've done your research, you'll see that alot of the other netbooks hav the annoying touchpad with the left and right buttons on the left and right side of the touchpad. This netbook has one bar under the touchpad that clicks left or right x) VERY well designed.
cons;

Battery life, the battery life on this is moderatly poor about 2-2.5 hours on a charge, I ended up buying a 6 cell for 59 bucks and it lasts about 6-7 hours x)
