Laptop Magazine recently reviewed the Acer Aspire One D260 netbook. The unit they reviewed comes with an Intel Atom N475 processor, 1GB RAM, and a 250GB HDD. They have found this netbook to have an attractive external design, average performance, and below average battery life (5 hours which is lower than other netbooks that they have reviewed recently including N150 Plus, HP Mini 210, and the Eee PC 1001P).
Here’s their verdict:
“Acer prioritized looks and portability above longevity in the D260, but this netbook manages to be charming even with its below-average battery life. Its $299 price is equally attractive, but for the same amount you could scoop up the ASUS Eee PC 1001P, which, though it has a smaller 160GB hard drive, fared better in several performance tests, including battery life. Still, if you think 5 hours or runtime is enough, the Aspire One D260 has plenty going for it, not the least of which being its charisma.”
