Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

The Acer Aspire One is a stylish and ultra mobile netbook, ideal for surfing the web, doing emails and messenger as well as basic computing functions like writing letters and doing simple spreadsheets. With its stunning 8.9 inch screen with built in webcam, 95% keyboard and unique yet intuitive interface, you will find the Aspire One a pleasure to use. Want one? Aspire One!


portable Ultra-portable
Weighing less than 1KG* and with dimensions that are smaller than the average diary, the Aspire One is fits into the palm of your hands, making it simple to carry by hand or even in a handbag.


Unique Aspire One Interface

One of the neatest features of the Aspire One is the unique operating system which is created on Linux Linplus. This simple-to-use system is based on clear icons, similar to a mobile phone system, which are launched by simply clicking on them, which makes it intuitive to use and simple to master.

Linplus Linux
 
Your primary interface is separated into 4 clear segments, Connect, Work, Fun and Files that combine to give you access to a whole host of tools to ensure you make the most of your mobility.

Connect Connect:
The Aspire One puts your favourite communication programs right on the home screen so you’re ready to connect to the web, email or chat on messenger within seconds of turning it on.

Work Work
For people who want to stay productive on the move, the Work section on the Aspire One has built in software that allows you to do everything from writing letters and doing basic spreadsheets to running a presentation. In the work section you can also access your contacts list, a calculator and a notes pad, giving you the flexibility you need.

Fun Fun
What would life be like without some fun? Whether it is watching a movie, listening to music or playing one of the exciting games already installed, the Aspire One will keep you entertained on the go.

Files Files
The files section of the interface gives you the ability to copy, share or access your files and folders simply and logically ensuring you are always in control.




Design Stylish Design
The Aspire One is an elegant and stylish netbook that features a stunning gloss cover in either seashell white or sapphire blue colours, so you can pick the version that suits your style and your personality.

Easy to Use Easy to Use
One of the key aspects to any Netbook is the keyboard size, too small and you can’t use it properly, too big and the whole system needs to be made bigger. Acer has managed to get a 95% keyboard into its 8.9 inch netbook, one of the largest for the size, making this netbook a pleasure to type on. 

Connectivity Connectivity
Connectivity is vital with a netbook, both to the internet and to other devises. For strong internet connectivity Acer has both wired and wireless internet connectivity options. To connect to other devises there are 3 USB ports as well as VGA output and sharing data between devises is easy with the built in multicard reader.

5.0 out of 5 stars 8GB Linux Aspire One - Awesome Little Machine, 1 Sep 2008
By A. Ward - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Acer Aspire One A110-Aw Netbook, Linpus Linux Lite version, 512MB DDR2 RAM, 8GB Flash (Seashell White) (Electronics)
I bought mine to replace a far more powerful laptop which died. I chiefly wanted to be able to surf the web via wireless connection, and be able to work on presentations and documents on the move. I opted for the 8GB Linux version "just to give it a try" on the grounds that I could upgrade to Windows if I didn't like it. In fact, the installed Linux OS and software is very good, and runs much faster than the Windows machines. I am a complete newbie to Linux, but even so I got up and running with barely a glance at the manual.

The solid state drive is a bonus for true mobile use as it is much more jolt resistant than a traditional drive. 8GB storage is plenty, but can be upgraded in seconds to 40GB with an SDHC card. If you have a couple of screwdrivers and scant regard for your warranty the memory can be upgraded to 1.5GB easily. The screen is clear and sharp with a good viewing angle, and the keyboard size is good. The supplied browser (Firefox 2) and e-mail browser work well, and OpenOffice is excellent - on a par with MS office in terms of function and well documented at www.openoffice.org.

Although the Aspire One is a new player on the block there is already a thriving community offering help and support - www.aspireoneuser.com. I'd suggest a browse there before buying.

5.0 out of 5 stars Should be 6 stars!, 6 Oct 2008
By Christopher Hunter "Software Engineer" (London, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Acer Aspire One A110-Aw Netbook, Linpus Linux Lite version, 512MB DDR2 RAM, 8GB Flash (Seashell White) (Electronics)
A superb bit of kit! I was initially a bit sceptical about "Linpus" Linux. I've used Linux since the mid-1990s, but was concerned that the installed version would be a limited, sub-standard version. I was fully ready to install my distro of choice, but found that I didn't need to.

The machine inspired confidence straight out of the box - the build quality is excellent (much better than the Asus offerings), and the keyboard felt OK. The display is bright and crisp. Battery life is OK (2.75 hours usually) but could be better. I have a home made battery box that I carry in my briefcase to plug into it if I need to.

Boot time is pretty quick, and the basic supplied applications will be sufficient for 90% of users. I've added more RAM (it's now 1 Gb) and another SDD (16 Gb) so that it's now a great little machine for working "out in the field". I've added a lot of administrative tools that I need for some of my work, and have GCC installed to allow me to write and compile software.

Wireless connection is flawless - it was trivially easy to configure for my home and office networks. I've also used it on public Wi-fi services without issue.

In all, a great machine - it's just what I needed!

5.0 out of 5 stars Fast, friendly, light, cool, great value, 9 Sep 2008
By Jake Brumby "internet fiend" (Bucks, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Acer Aspire One A110-Aw Netbook, Linpus Linux Lite version, 512MB DDR2 RAM, 8GB Flash (Seashell White) (Electronics)
I've just taken delivery of this new Acer Aspire One (Amazon delivery took 5 days).

Out of the box it looks great, it is light, the build quality looks and feels very good and the screen opens smoothly. It came with 80% battery life already which is handy if you don't have electricity to hand immediately.

I booted it up and went through a simple 4 step setup process (language, country, time, password) which took about 3 minutes. Then the OS booted. It is very user friendly with big links on the opening screen for Web, Mail, Photos, Video, Preferences, Documents etc.

There is no link to "Wireless" or "Networks" which would be handy, but there is an icon in the botton right. You click on that icon and it shows you all the wireless networks within range. I connected to my home wifi without any difficulty (though I don't use WPA or WEP security - I am a believer that wifi should be shared and free!).

The laptop is for my mother and she will have no trouble using it. It is a replacement for an Asus EEE that I bought her 4 months ago. The EEE was beautiful and cool, but it was temperamental in connecting to wireless networks. That's a major flaw.

I would strongly recommend the Acer Aspire One over the EEE. It is cheaper, just as cool, just as easy to use and it does not have wireless network difficulties. Top marks Acer and welcome to the mini-laptop market. Competition is great.
