Cool Stuffs Review

Iv'e been using my 10 inch Aspire One now for a couple of weeks. All in all, it has exceeded my expectations for a low cost netbook, however I have a few concerns;

First, I really don't like the fact that it dosen't come with separate restore disks. It's really irritating when you have to use a separate drive - not included with the unit - to generate the restoration discs that you really should have.

Second, the key board is a bit small to accomodate a touch typist. You can get used to it, but it really does cut down on your speed.

Third, the touchpad is truly difficult to use. I've successfully worked around this by buying a wireless mouse, however, this means I have to carry an extra piece of hardware around with me... This kind of defeats the nice small package I was initially attracted to.

On the positive side, I really liked the following:

1. The unit was/is totally responsive with a quick boot up and great web performance. When used with the wireless mouse, it's almost like working with a desktop. The speed of the processor is truly amazing, allowing you to perform some complex tasks with ease.

2. Great display... You can see this in any lighting environment.

3. Totally quiet... the fan noise is almost non-existant.

4. Very good battery life.

5. Very easy to upgrade the memory.

All in all, it's a great buy for anyone looking for a small, fully functional, inexpensive and very portable computer.
