One, if not THE, best netbook available! Oct 13, 2009
By Randy B. First off, for those that don't know what a netbook is, it's almost like a laptop in almost every aspect of it except that the RAM size and processor speeds cannot keep up with today's high demands for pretty much anything (such as photoshop or computer games; although they would still open and install like normal, it was just be too slow). Don't let this stop you from adding IM's though! They still run perfect.
I am a college student and i absolutely love almost everything about this netbook! Why this model?? I purposely got this model particularly for the 6-cell battery, providing an average of 6 hours of battery life. Also specific to the later models, the addition of bluetooth! This i think is just a neat little add-on. I also got the white netbook because of the "smudging" factor (fingerprints).
Also, the reason i say this netbook is perhaps the best in the market is because i spent about 3 weeks, 2 hours a day, researching different netbooks and reading every single customer review that came about; from the samsung nc10s/nc20s, to dell and hp netbooks, even asus and other uncommon brands. Although there were some netbooks with longer battery life, the acer netbooks typically had faster processors, were significantly thinner, were somewhat cheaper, and were even better looking than other brands!
I especially recommend this netbook as an alternative to laptops for college students!!
Ratings.
Battery (6+ hours)-5/5
Power (multi-tasking)-3/5
Features (bluetooth/webcam)-5/5
Price (from $308)- 5/5
Value (compared to other netbooks)- 5/5
Overall- 4.6/5

Exactly what I neeeded! Nov 16, 2009
By A. Russell I am definitely not a genious when it comes to computers, but in my opinion this netbook is great! The 6 cell battery is amazing, and the size is perfect for carrying around campus to all of my classes. I am a teacher, and I use it for checking email, posting information, grades, etc., presentations using a projector, and many other things. I was afraid that it would be really slow, but once I removed alot of the extra programs that came with it, it was fine. I definitely recommend this computer!

I love it! Oct 01, 2009
By EM455 This laptop is not meant to be used for professional video, image or sound work.
It doesn't even have a CD room (and it shouldn't be expected to have one anyway)
But if you're a student, bussiness man, or a writer (specially a writer!!!)
You will love this netbook. I think it is a great first lap top for kids or teenagers because it is sooo easy to start using and easy to use in general.
It you just want to write and write and write....this computer will make it easier for you!
If you just want to have fun it will be even easier. It's a funny computer (in a good sense, meaning you have fun with it).
The machine is very silent (maybe too silent sometimes, read ahead),so no strange disturbing noises are heard. The web cam is good and you can take pictures with it. The whole computer is great for skype or other kind of video conference interaction
The touchpad is amazingly easy to use(says someone who would never touch a laptop with an usb "normal" mouse). The keyboard is logical and easy to adapt to.
You will love the way this computer looks....it's small enough to stand out but big enough not to look like a toy. It is just plain beautiful, you will enjoy just watching it ( eventought a computer should probably be picked up because of its features and not because of its looks).
Battery life seems ethernal, it's amazing!
Anyway I'm just really happy that I purchased this, I wouldn't change it for anything else in the world. Enjoy, but don't expect it to do what it can't
It's not flawless though, that's why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5:
The speakers are just ridiculous, you can barely hear anything at all (unless you have headphones but I haven't tried that method yet, I will though)
The computer gets way too hot!!! if you use it on your lap like I do most of the time you'll feel some kind of uncomfortable heat almost burning you. The usb thing I use to get internet on the pc also gets really hot, I hope it won't get damaged.
the shiny surfaces get finger prints and scratches and dust it seems impossible to get rid of.........
I don't think any of the bad points I've talked about so far are important, I mean, they are things we can easily get used too. It's a simple great laptop for simple great peopla! >D

Problem with screensize Oct 20, 2009
By MdJH
"MdJH"
Could someone PLEASE help me? Bought this ACER AOD250 but I am unable to see the bottom of the window in some applications. No problem with the screen! The applications don't allow to resize, enlarge the windows or pull them more up. They dissapear beyond the toolbar. So I can't press OK or Agree in some windows, tried to do so with TAB without seeing anything but doesn't work for all things.. Suggestions?
After warrenty blues Jan 30, 2012
By Soft Zen Essentially folks these computers are made to last only as long as the warrenty is valid. First the lower half of the screen scrambled so I can't see anything below 2/3 and have to take a guess at where the Start Button is. Then the power management failed. The powercord won't charge the battery. Wiggling it worked for a while now that doesn't work anymore. Overall these laptops are cheap and made to die in less than 2 years.
