 Must Have Patience! May 10, 2010
Erin F. Kahwati (Littleton, MA)
I ordered this item because I travel a lot and needed something to do basic computing and e-mail. This does the trick...but it's incredibly slow and freezes a lot (I don't have it loaded with apps either!) I don't recommend this for people who need to use MS office products or people who don't have the patience to wait for pages to download or things to process. I'm going to try to sell it used and get a normal laptop. Acer Aspire One AOD150-1920 10.1-Inch Ruby Red Netbook - 6.5 Hour Battery Life
 One of the best gifts I've ever gotten May 6, 2010
Michael A. Saxton (USA)
For several years I went from Laptop to Laptop but had similar issues. They really weren't small enough or portable enough for my taste (and the ones that were had a much larger price tag than what I wanted). The battery life wasn't quite up to par and I wanted to be able to use it for extended periods of time without plugging it in. Then I got this Acer Netbook and it was a lifesaver.
This unit is just the right size. It's not so big that it becomes bulky or difficult to keep on your lap but it's not so small that you can't see anything or utilize the keyboard. I also noticed that despite the advertised 6.5 hour battery life, I've been getting upwards of 8 hours out of it. I'm not a big fan of touch pads (nothing wrong with the one that's on this unit, I just don't like touch pads in general) so I got the Wireless Mouse M305 and now all is well.
My only real complaint is that I wish I could expand the amount of RAM to 4 GB, as that would insure a very long life of usability. Obviously, netbooks aren't made to be powerhouse computers and I use this for my writing, web content updating, and surfing. I have a USB DVD drive, and I have watched movies on it without an issue (this drains the battery a bit faster though) and any advanced computer functions that I need like video editing, I would use my desktop for anyway with the large screen.
All in all, I've been thrilled with this netbook.

I'm in love! April 7, 2010
K. Chambers (NJ)
All I can say is that this was the best $300 I've ever spent! I absolutely love this netbook. I can't rave about it enough. I was one of those people who didn't want a Blackberry because the print is too small. I like to read files and attachments in full size instead of on a hand-held device the size of a deck of cards. But a traditional lap top was too big and cumbersome for me to tote around. So this was the perfect compromise. It's light and super compact and I got mine in the hot ruby red color! I use it for work (mostly basic documents and files...no heavy duty graphics or enormous data) and for home (emails, facebook, youtube, etc.) and I am super impressed with the speed, the memory and all the features (especially the intro trial period of Microsoft Office that came free with purchase). I highly recommend this product.
Great Netbook!! March 27, 2010
K. Kopec (Uniontown, PA)
I bought this little Acer netbook for my 12 year old son. He LOVES IT!!!! HE CAN PLAY ON-LINE GAMES WITH HIS FRIENDS ACROSS THE COUNTRY AS WELL AS FROM HIS SCHOOL. It was the best investment I've ever made for him!! Was totally worth it and I would recommend it to anyone who needs a small computer. I also have one and I use it for social networking as well as on-line banking. Great product!!
 Poor battery life. February 23, 2010
K.. (NY)
The netbook itself does what it was suppose to in terms of performance. The battery life, however, is very short, consistently discharging almost 50% in three days even when off. This severely affects the portability of the machine,as I always have to carry the AC adapter with me, and Acer's advice to charge the battery for a few cycles and to reset the bios did not help. Very disappointed.
