Processor
The Intel Atom processor uses a brand new design structure that packs in 47 million transistors into a single chip sized at just 22mm (0.87 inches), and it uses just 2.5 watts of power--less than 1/10 of the 35 watts used by an Intel Core 2 Duo processor--for excellent battery management. This 1.6 GHz Atom N270 processor also includes a power-optimized front side bus of 533 MHz for faster data transfer on demanding mobile applications and a 512 KB L2 cache (which temporarily stores data).

 It Rocks! January 6, 2009
M. Wisniewski (Florida)
I gave my laptop to my daughter and use only the netbook. After reading reviews, I'm glad I spent a little more on the Acer. Nuff said!
Worth 4x the price January 6, 2009
R. Alembik (DECATUR, GA United States)
I love this machine. For traveling it's perfect. I keep it in my sling backpack for daily use walking to work, or just hanging out in a waiting room, restaurant, or cafe. Combined with my air card it's the most liberating thing I've owned since I got my first car at age 16. Most of what I do is remote into work, so the size of the hard drive, speed of the chip, or RAM is inconsequential to me.
So far so good. January 6, 2009
Kenny Velez
So far so good. It does what it's meant to do. It is slow compared to my desktop but that was an expected compromise for the price and form factor.
 Returned it January 6, 2009
Daniel And Barbara Sullinger (Phoenix, Az United States)
Since after reading all the reviews here and with all thetroubles some people had with it, specially the loud fan noise once amazon got it to me I just returned it unopened and purchased the ASUS 1000HA
Powerful and versatile January 6, 2009
Wilbur Sachs (Chicago)
Pros: After 2 weeks of use, I find this an excellent, powerful, easy-to-use, well-designed product; touch-typing even with big fingers; nice screen, large HD, long-lasting battery
Cons: No built-in Bluetooth; set-up instructions are non-existent (not a big problem, but a lapse); customer service appears difficult to obtain in a timely way (I have not had to contact customer service, but the Acer website does not inspire confidence).
Summary: I came to this computer after trying the Dell Mini 9, a nice if underpowered computer, but one (as I discovered) with software and hardware problems (I had 3 units replaced in the course of 3 months -- flakey power switch, burned-out mother board, HD corrupted by Windows Update). Though Dell makes some nice notebooks, that is not one of them. I use the Acer as a secondary notebook but can do serious work on it, including with hi-end graphics software. I do not mind the touch pad which bothers many b/c I mainly use a Bluetooth USB mouse.
