Building on its line of popular Aspire One netbooks, Acer makes it even easier to stay productive while on the go with the larger 10.1-inch screen of the Aspire One AOD250. Improving on the previous AOD150 model
, the chassis of the Aspire One AOD250 has been honed down to be more sleek and lightweight than its predecessor while still retaining its excellent near full-size keyboard and stylish signature black bezel surrounding the bright, glossy 10.1-inch screen.

| This is the best little computer I've ever owned!!! The battery life is exactly as advertised (I had trouble running it dead the first three times - as the directions recommend!), the keyboard is large and comfortable, the monitor is bright and clear, and the little guy weighs almost nothing!!! I'm a teacher, I just throw him in my bag everyday (he weighs less than my teacher's editions!). The processing speed is faster than my full size laptop, and the functionality... well, you just can't beat it!!! Buy this one!!! Like I said, THE BEST $360 BUCKS I EVER SPENT!!! |
Good little laptop

There are a lot of reviews, so I'll cover the highlights:
Did a lot of research between this, samsung nc-10, and a few other models, and settled on this one. Honestly, they're all pretty much the same, with the distinction of the newer models come with bluetooth. I was on the fence waiting for windows 7 to come preinstalled, but I got impatient, and I wasn't sure how long it would take before they would release it with windows 7. One change I made was to swap out the ram for a 2GB chip before I even started it, booted it up, and away I went.
Keyboard is a bit smaller than used too, but it was primarily for the wife, so not a big issue. I think I'd get used to after a few hours, just a little less wiggle room for touch typing than I was used to. There was some 'crapware', mostly games, and I'm not a fan of mcaffee, so removed & installed avast & comodo instead. Runs great, and as long as you get that it's not supposed to be a powerhouse, you'll be fine. The weight is very nice, my wife will be taking with her to hospital & other places, so compared to my old laptop (17" screen), its barely there!
We love it & think you won't go wrong on this. Glossy finish shows fingerprints, but it looks good. Screen is really nice, sharp, beautiful colors. Touchpad is seamless, which is nice so that you don't get crumbs in the cracks (sitting on the couch.. it happens), and build quality seems pretty solid. |
Great little buddy

| Been lovin it from the moment it landed on my doorstep. Keyboard a little small but not enough to pose a problem (it might if you have large hands ad extensive keyboard tasks). Portability is more than enough to make up for that. |
Installed Windows 7 Easily!

I'll keep this short since so many other great reviews exist.
The netbook is fantastic. Very speedy and the screen is super sharp (1024 x 680) and easy to see. They keyboard takes a little getting used to, especially for me since I use shortcut keys all the time and hitting Shift, Control, Alt, or Fn is a little tricky -- but that's going to be the case with any netbook.
The big thing for me was being able to install Windows 7 on it. It took it beautifully! No glitches, and everything worked perfectly on the first try. I did not have to manually install a single driver! (I installed by plugging in a USB DVD drive.)
The battery life is impressive! Just remember you won't get 8 hours if you've got WiFi turned on. FYI, the battery is over half the weight of the device.
This little guy is now my travel companion, and a great test for Windows 7. Now I just need to get an AC adaptor for my car. |
