11.6-Inch Widescreen Display

The 11.6-inch LED-backlit display (1366 x 768 pixels) presents true 16:9 aspect ratio with high-def resolution and fast 8ms (millisecond) response time for high-quality media playback as well as increased readability in low-light conditions. And the LED backlight technology is 33 percent more energy efficient than standard CCFL LCD screens.


Power-Sipping Processor

Newly designed from the ground up, the Intel Atom Z520 uses a 45nm (nanometer) design structure with new hafnium-infused circuitry--which reduces electrical current leakage in transistors--to conserve even more energy and give you more time away from the wall outlet. The Intel Atom Z520 provides a 1.3 GHz CPU speed with a 533 MHz front-side bus (FSB) and 512 KB L2 cache--which uses just 2 watts of power. (An L2, or secondary, cache temporarily stores data; and a larger L2 cache can help speed up your system's performance. The FSB carries data between the CPU and RAM, and a faster front-side bus will deliver better overall performance.)


The Multi-Gestured Acer Aspire One

A Multi-Gesture Touchpad allows you to pinch, flick and swirl your fingers across the touchpad for more natural photo and video viewing as well as intuitive navigation of websites. The Multi-Gesture Touchpad enables you to scroll, zoom in and out and flip through web pages, photos, spreadsheets and more.

The TouchPad can also be disabled with a one-touch button, eliminating accidental cursor movement with palms and wrists when using an external mouse.


Windows Vista Home Basic Operating System

Windows Vista Home Basic (32-bit) is the operating system for users with basic computing needs, such as surfing the Internet, corresponding with friends and family using e-mail, or performing basic document creation and editing tasks. Additionally, Windows Vista Home Basic integrates new search tools throughout the operating system to help you quickly find the precise file or program you need.

Every edition of Windows Vista provides the essential tools and technologies to help protect you whether you are browsing the Internet, connecting to a wireless network, or just reading e-mail. All editions of Windows Vista include new tools that can warn you of impending hardware failures long before you have lost any important personal data. And, all Windows Vista editions include parental control features that allow you to manage and monitor your family's use of games, the Internet, instant messaging, and other activities.

You get a lot for the money
This review is from: Acer Aspire One AO751h-1893 11.6-Inch Black Netbook - 8 Hour Battery Life (Personal Computers)
My options were to get either a deal netbook or one that fits the minimal criteria.
I was one of the millions that Amazon disappointed by cancelling my HP mini order due to their mistake posting a very low price. But that is a different review.
So since the deal was gone I focused on what I wanted for features.

* I wanted at least a 10" widescreen display the Acer Aspire One AO751h-1893 has an 11.6" and the + is that it is a very high resolution screen. Fantastic is a good adjective to describe it.
* I wanted built in Bluetooth, easy to engage with two options one is the easy button next to the Wi-Fi and the second is the F3 option when holding down the fn button.
* I wanted the extended battery life. 8+ hours even more if I work in power saver mode (but it dims down too much, so for the sake of my eyes I will rarely use this option) even though the Ac power adapter is small after the first few days of use I stopped caring it because the battery life is so good. What I did not realize is that the extended life battery also extends the battery itself making it bulker than the photo. The photo shows a flush fitting battery if you order this expect an extended size.
* I wanted at least a 120 GB hard drive, this has 250 GB
* I wanted the 2 GB RAM, this allows Vista to operate properly and not slow down the system. The + is that it comes with Vista basic, saves me the trouble of installing it. But expect when connecting to the internet for the first time that the updates to the operating system and to the software to be time consuming.
* I wanted to pay less than $400 I got to pay $450 can't always get what you want! But over all I am very happy with my purchase. I have owned and used this computer for two weeks, I usually use an item a month before I review it, but since this computer is so light weight and portable I have taken it every were and used it enough so I could recommend it.

What I experienced using my Acer Aspire One AO751h-1893:

* The Atom processor is great it does not heat up and it is super quite. Once I removed all the junk that is preinstalled on the computer (most computer not just this) it is fast. I preferred the Atom N270 or N280 but this Atom Z520 is just fine. I have not owned either N Atom so I can not give my opinion about performance difference.
* The key board is comfortable to use and the touch pad is nice. (could be a few mm wider to allow the full benefit of the Flick, Pinch and Circular features)

It would have been nice to have an access button to the web cam. Like I mentioned earlier the Bluetooth has two easy access buttons but the web cam has none (that I have detected)
In conclusion this netbook looks and feels rugged and sturdy the screen is glossy so expect a fantastic picture and the battery life is great so you'll use it a lot.

Much better then I expected it to be!! Vista Home basic is OK
  
This review is from: Acer Aspire One AO751h-1893 11.6-Inch Black Netbook - 8 Hour Battery Life (Personal Computers)
This is my first NETBOOK, all my other computers are desktop and homebuilt. The price for the Acer was good and is
just about right for what you get. 2 gig of ram, 250 gig hd and a almost full size keyboard. The junk free software was removed - the first time on line - it did take a while for VISTA to upgrade but I left the NETBOOK plugged into AC power and had no problems. Note: do charge the battery prior to first use. Vista is not my OS of choice, I prefer XP Home Media Edition but this VISTA home basic is not bad nor does it seem to slow up the NETBOOK. True on bootup it is slow but it is a NETBOOK with a 1.3 cpu for goodness sake (smile)... over all I give it FIVE STARS with the note that the keyboard is just a wee bit tight for my BIG FINGERS! Take care.

Just get rid of Vista for XP or Linux and it is an AWSOME netbook.
  
This review is from: Acer Aspire One AO751h-1893 11.6-Inch Black Netbook - 8 Hour Battery Life (Personal Computers)
Acer is under the obligation to put Vista due to licensing in machines "capable" of running vista. At 2GB ram, it is "possible" to run Vista, but Vista is a dog in almost any machine! particularly with all its bloatware and excessive service packs and security "band aids" + resident antivirus.

YES, the Acer' processor is only 1.33mhz which is not "powerful" per se but the memory more than makes up for it in XP and Linux. There is no other full size keyboard netbook with a 6 cell battery for the price. I tried the Toshiba "9 hour" netbook, but the keyboard was too small, the display way 10" vs. 11", and really, the processor at 1.6mhz is not much of an advantage over Acer's 1.33mhz. I happily surf the net, do Skype, Word, XL and even watched an episode of 24 streamed[...] with no issues.....any heavy powerpoints I leave to a full power notebook or desktop, but for most daily applications, it works just fine!

I suggest you do this to get the best performance and great user experiece........From the wizard, generate the "recovery disks" when you get the machine, should you want to put everything back to factory. Get a copy of XP home, Partition the 250gb drive into half so you may house both Linux and XP.....install XP first in the 125gb partition (you can download the drivers), then go to the UBUNTU site ([...]) and get the netbook tweaked version of desktop ver 9......not only does it come with all the "office" (as in MS office) stuff and most anything you'l need, it is EASY TO USE (i.e. it mimics windows operations, auto-installs, auto detects, auto-does, even the wireless network detection, etc. everything).....and you'l find yourself using windows less and less in favor of Ubuntu (which is a version of debian Linux, but extremely user friendly, particularly to the Windows user).

It does not get hot like a traditional notebook, it weight little, the battery lasts, the graphics are good......what else can I say? IT IS AWESOME what they've done with this netbook.
