Cool Stuffs Review

I recently purchased this netbook for my girlfriend, replacing the 5 year old laptop she had.

It was meant as a surprise for her, so I removed some minimal bloatware and installed some of the software she needs. It's currently set up with Firefox, OpenOffice and Itunes and runs like a gem.

This being my first experience with a netbook I was extremely surprised at the capability for the price. It does everything she would need it for, is ultra portable, and stylish to boot.

I connected the machine to our home network and now she can get all the media she wants on her little companion. We've been watching full screen movies and tv shows while on the road without any issues.

The keyboard is small at first, but as other reviewers have stated, you get used to it. I have average size hands for a man and do a lot of typing. I have done a speed test with this keyboard and was able to write 60 words per minute. The only slow down coming from finding the new placement of special characters. I'm actually currently typing this review on it.

The battery life of the 6cell battery is as advertised. On the lowest screen brightness and without wifi you could easily achieve 8 hours on it. So far we've had no problems going longer periods away from an outlet.

I would easily recommend this product to anybody looking for an ultra portable device for the basic everyday computer tasks. I purchased the ruby red version as my lady likes a splash of color. The netbook feels very solid while being light weight at the same time.

My girlfriend refers to it as her "little nugget" and has really enjoyed this purchase. I knew she would love it, but I have to admit I was also happily surprised.Get more detail about Acer Aspire One AOD150-1920 10.1-Inch Ruby Red Netbook - 6.5 Hour Battery Life.
