Excellent Netbook
This review is from: Acer Aspire One AOD255E-13647 10.1-Inch Netbook (Diamond Black) (Personal Computers)
This netbook was a recent purchase I made at a local store. So far, I have really enjoyed using it. I needed an inexpensive portable computer to take with me on mountain climbs and hikes in the wilderness now that I have a data-capable satellite phone. Before this netbook, I did not own any computer that cost less than $800, so I did not want to carry them on somewhat dangerous treks. I do however have a bit of advice for anyone who decides to purchase one of these: First, it runs much quicker with a different antivirus program than the one that comes preloaded on it. I noticed when I first used it that McAfee was using around 90% of the processor power, so it ran pretty slow. Now I have it running pretty quickly without antivirus software, but only because I am an IT professional and plan to restore the computer if it ever gets a virus. Second, if you want to have a netbook with 3G cellular internet access, it's possibly best to do what I have done and purchase a 3G USB device from Virgin Mobile prepaid, which you can buy a $10 plan, good for 10 days with 100mb or a $40 unlimited data month plan. This setup makes it much easier to only pay for 3G when needed, not all the time. Also, if you want more than 3-4 hours of battery life you may want to purchase a larger battery for it. My plan is to eventually just purchase a second battery like the one that came with it because larger netbook batteries usually stick way out of the bottom and ruin the thinness of the computer.

Anyway, I highly recommend this PC to anyone looking for a low-cost netbook. I will definitely be using it for work, school, and hiking since it can fit in just about any bag and works well.

A good value, better than I expected.
This review is from: Acer Aspire One AOD255E-13647 10.1-Inch Netbook (Diamond Black) (Personal Computers)
This is my first netbook and I bought it mostly for travel. It is very light and thin, charger is tiny. Screen is excellent, keyboard OK (slightly smaller than standard), touchpad very sensitive. I find Windows 7 Starter performs fine since I don't open a lot of apps at once. Battery lasts about 3 hours but it is new so time will tell on that. Wifi range is good. Cannot upgrade the memory easily and will void warranty if you do. Netflix works fine but some other videos were a little choppy. Has 3 USB ports, SD card slot (card sticks out slightly so you can't use it for speed boost), headphone and mic jacks, video out port.

Poor Performance Overall
I read the previous reviews about this netbook and thought it sounded decent for the price. I purchased one and have been extremely disapponted.

Not to shabby
I purchased this for just your basic everyday internet-type of use (email, general browsing, shopping). This was shipped and received on time and was a snap to setup.
