Having owned this computer for just over 4 months, only being able to use if for roughly 2 months, they repaired the hinge and replaced the rubber leg with a SMALLER ONE. Now it does not even sit balanced. Very disappointed in Acer. This is my FORTH Acer computer since 1998 and am very disappointed not only in this computer but their repair service. from Amazon.com Had all kinds of problems trying to make wireless sync work. Worked one minute, not the next. Finally gave up, returned it, got the AOD150 with 6 hour battery instead. That one is great. from Amazon.com Tech Support recommended 'factory re-starts' twice. This is the 3rd time that it locks up since July 2009... since 'factory re-starts' erases everything I had loaded in my Netbook, they are not a real solution. Netbook on the way to Acer Repair Center... from Amazon.com This is a great computer if you already have a desktop at home and just need something for on the go. It is very small and lightweight, which is great if you are like me and have to carry around an already heavy backpack all the time. The keyboard is pretty similar in feel to a normal keyboard compared to other netbooks that I have used. The only real downsides are the performance capabilities and the lack of CD/DVD drive, but there are plenty of ways around both of those if you have another computer. from Amazon.com Actually it is faster and has more RAM. The size is definitely a plus over the other computer and makes it easy to carry around. Only negative feeling I have is that had I known that Acer had a model with an 11.6 inch screen and higher resolution I would have ordered that instead. I use mine probably 2 to 3 hours per day. from Amazon.com I bought this netbook for my son so he can look up his homeworks (math, science, social studies) online. I had a 17 inch HP w/ Vista before and it broke about 2 months ago. from Amazon.com This netbook is just the right weight and size for travel or for those of us with limited space. While of course you make some trade-offs for this convenience, the minor features sacrificed don't really affect the utility of this product. from Amazon.com Problem was, it wouldn't detect my network wireless signal. The so-called instruction manual was of no use whatsoever. Just to make sure it wasn't a network glitch I ran my Dell and Toshiba laptops right along side the ACER. They both came up and instantly latched onto the wireless signal. from Amazon.com I went to a local Fr*'s to play around with a bunch of netbooks before deciding on one. HP definitely had a nicer keyboard, and there are other brands like MSI with non-glossy screens (much better choice than the annoying glossy screens many netbooks come with, including this one). from Amazon.com This netbook is perfect for doing some work on a plane or in a coffee shop. I haven't noticed performance differences with a full-size notebook when doing word-processing tasks or web browsing. from Amazon.com
