Red Laptop

I have just received my delicious ruby red Acer Aspire One AOD150 netbook last week and it was just love at first sight. I have no complaints about the AOD150 except for the fact that you need to get used to the slightly smaller keyboard (which is the case with any netbook in the market).

One of the best features of this tiny little machine is its design. I only waited this long to get my hands on a netbook because most of the netbooks in the market before the Acer Aspire One looks like a toy more like a computer. The sleek design and professional looks of the Acer Aspire One AOD150 netbook has finally given me the nudge I needed to get onto the netbook bandwagon. I choose the Ruby Red model as I was looking for something edgy and load. This netbook is also available in shades of black, blue and white.

The easy-to-use Aspire One netbook with 10.1” display provides continuous access to the Internet and weighs just under three pounds.

Offering a ruby red chassis, the netbook’s smooth surface is comfortable to touch. It’s accented with distinctive details and has a solid build for everyday use. It also has a webcam integrated into the LCD’s bezel and a built-in digital microphone for video conversations and recording.

Building on its line of popular Aspire One netbooks, Acer makes it even easier to stay productive while on the go. This version comes with a 160 GB hard disk drive (5400 rpm), 1.6 GHz Intel Atom N270 processor and preinstalled Microsoft Windows XP Home operating system.

This stylish netbook is designed to be an affordable and simple solution for Web browsing, e-mail management, instant messaging, VOIP calls, streaming video, photo viewing and music enjoyment. In short, it strikes just the right balance between mobility and productivity.

The 10.1” Aspire One has something for everyone—business users constantly on-the-go, young students who need their first PC, or tech aficionados seeking a lightweight, secondary device with extended battery power.

Genuine Windows XP Home Edition ; SP3 version; Intel Atom Processor N270 (512KB L2 cache, 1.60GHz, 533MHz FSB); 1GB DDR2 533 SDRAM; 160GB hard drive, multi-in-one card reader; 10.1″ WSVGA (1024 x 600) TFT display, Acer CrystalBrite Technology; Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950; 802.11b/g WLAN, 10/100 LAN, webcam; ruby red chassis; six-cell battery; one-year limited warranty

The battery lifespan of the regular 4400 battery is about 4 hours. The new 6-cell 5800 mh battery that can last up to 8 hours of extended use on a single charge. With the longer battery lifespan, I can use the netbook to watch movies when traveling and carry it with me on the good without the need to bring the charger along.

Due to the configurations of the Windows XP home on the Acer Aspire One AOD150 netbook, this little notebook may seems to be much faster than many current laptops. It runs on a 1.6GHz Intel Atom processor and has 1GB of RAM. The Windows XP on the netbook is a skimmed version of the original operating system. Many bells and whistles have been removed, creating a speedy performance.

With over 160GB of hard drive space, there is more than enough storage for the average laptop user. The Acer Aspire One AOD150 netbook is also wi-fi enabled (802.11b/g) and has a in built webcam for video conferences.
All in all, the Aspire One D150 is Acer’s 10-inch netbook featuring all standard netbook components and is comparable to the Asus Eee PC 1000HA. The netbook comes in four colors: Sapphire Blue, Diamond Black, Seashell White and Ruby Red.
