The Acer Aspire One

Welcome Aspire,
I'd like to take a moment to recognize just how far we've come. Do you do most of your computer work with smaller applications or mostly online? Looking to replace your laptop with one that could meet your needs without costing a thousand dollars or more? Let's take a look at the Acer Aspire One.

From Amazon:
Acer redefines mobile connectivity with the Aspire one, a netbook (or mini-notebook) packed with fun and powerful computing features in a diminutive 8.9" form factor weighing as little as 2.2 lb. Aimed at business professionals, students and world travelers, it offers a choice of operating systems, wireless connectivity, Internet access, built-in webcam and the storage space needed for digital photos. It's time to simplify your life with the Aspire one.

Specs:
* 1.6GHz Atom N270
* 1GB DDR2 SDRAM
* 1.3 Megapixel camera, SDHC and multi-format media readers
* 802.11b/g, Ethernet, three USB 2.0, VGA, and 3.5mm audio out
* One free mini PCI slot for WWAN, 160GB hard drive (2.2 pounds)



The small footprint and the ability to plug in an external monitor, up to 3 usb devices, and an SD card reader give this small laptop more than enough bang for the common user's buck.
