So it has the usual features, i.e. built in wi-fi, camera, 160 GB drive, etc, etc. This is the 3 hr battery model. I have no idea where Amazon gets their tech specs. We just bought this and the manual states that it comes with 1 GB of RAM, and is upgradeable to 2 GB. It recognized 4 wireless connections in my area the instant it was powered on. So far it's great for what it was bought for, the internet, small low demand games, music, simple word processing... Acer Aspire One AOD250-1165

Its small enough that i can take it anywhere but not so small that i cant see the screen. I adapted very well to the keys that are smaller and closer together.. and dont have any problems with it. Everything loads up quickly and the colors are great. The battery does die out rather quickly but that is why it is good to bring the charger with you when you go places.. the webcam works nicely too. I definitely recommend it to anyone who is under a budget and needs a laptop. Acer Aspire One AOD250-1962

Super Pleased! I was worried about getting one as I have had a 12" laptop and was not happy with screen size. But this screen is SO bright it does not even become a issue, not to mention the 1064x600 really makes it seem bigger! Another bonus, this baby runs 7.5 to 8 hours due to the 5800Amh 6 cell battery! Sweet. Very happy with that. I heard most were shipping with the 4400Amh 6 cell which gives your 5-6 hours. I can run this all day or two before recharge, very nice! I have to keep looking at battery indicator in dis-belief that the battery is still 75% or 50%, it just lasts forever! This is super portable obviously, and really how laptops SHOULD be. You can put on one leg, it doesn't weigh you down when actually sitting in your lap which is nice. I have had many laptops over the years, screen sizes and this one wins hands down for price, and performance. The unit is strong heavy duty case, compared to some newer thin plastic laptops.

If you buy this with the larger 6 hour battery option, it's cheaper then adding it later. This neat little number fits in your purse and has a pretty powerful WiFi receiver, I take it grocery shopping to Safeway to look up recipe ingredients!! The only drawback is the small screen. Your eyes get a bit tired with extended viewing. I highly recommend it though for people on the go and it's great for travel. Acer Aspire One Sapphire Blue

Small,lightweight but powerful enough to do what I need it to do for work and for personal. In addition to general word processing, I will use it to do Power point presentations for work. And I'm actually looking forward to working on it sitting on an airplane, even if I'm stuck in the dreaded middle seat! I'm recommending it to everyone I know! acer aspire one pink

I'm not aware if anyone has attempted to set it up for proper gestures like instant programme launches. In any case, I use a mouse on most days so I completely failed to check whether it can do this. orz I'll get back to you on that one! ;) @Zeroblade: Good point. In any case, if you already have a full-size notebook, you might consider talking her into giving you a netbook instead (or the smallest, lightest full-size notebook available). The big one can be used for homework and the little one for mobile computing. @Xcomp: I remember reading somewhere that someone who was fed up with the odd placement of the buttons configured his to accept left-hand clicks on one of the pad corners.
