Blown away.. July 28, 2010

I purchased this laptop three days ago, just got it this morning, and so far it's wonderful. This is my first-ever laptop, and I spent a lot of time researching the perfect one for me. Thank you so much to the K.McDowell, who's review sold me on this buy.
Here are my pros/cons:
Pros:
Great look;not a fingerprint magnet,thank goodness. Fingerprints all over everything annoy more that it should.
Ultra Portable; Slim and light, big enough for movies but small enough to fit in my purse, perfect on the go laptop.
Windows 7 home premium; I absolutely LOVE this os. I couldn't ask for anything better.
Keyboard is great, having to adjust to it, but that's fine.
Runs very quiet, I can't hear a thing.
Multi-gesture mouse thing is pretty awesome! I love this feature, and it sure does come in handy.
This unit seems to be very cool. I haven't had problems with my hands getting hot while I type. Occasionally the bpttom will get heated when I'm all cozy in my bed, but I can hold it up to my bedside lamp and it will cool off within a minute or two(while the laptop is still up and running).
250 HDD, plenty of space for me, and then some. I wasn't looking to replace my desktop, but I could use this for almost everything that I could possibly need
Memory is expandable which you won't find a lot in smaller computers. It came pre-installed with 3GB, plenty enough to run Windows 7 and then some. Expandable memory up to 4GB, really not bad AT ALL considering the size of the computer.
Netbook size without the hassle and slow quality of smaller models. The specs on this model are MUCH better.
HDMI port is AWESOME! I can easily hook this computer up to the tv and display netflix or whatever I need.
Basically, this computer has everything I could need and then some. Again, VERY satisfied.
Cons: Battery life isn't quite as advertised. I've had it up and running since 12:30 cst, it's now 4:42. Guess this is okay, seeing how it is so small and lightweight, can't expect it to be a miracle worker.
Fingerprints on the screen are easily seen in outdoor lighting, but they are easy to clean off with a paper towel.
No DVD/CD drive, BUT.. this is okay with me. I knew beforehand that there wasn't one. I do not use the cd/dvd drive often anyways.
No other cons, I will be updating this if and when I have any other cons to talk about.
I REALLY do recommend this computer to anyone who needs it for simple use: School, Netflix, internet browsing, email, etc. Not for people who are heavy gamers or people who will need to be running many rather large files at once. So far so good, no problems here. This is a super portable computer and it is easy to carry with you. I just stick it in my purse and go as I please.
***UPDATE***
So, I accidentally tripped and fell, being the klutz that I am. Ironically, I fell off of my bed while holding this computer open and my knee landed FORCEFULLY into the screen. Needless to say it is quite painful.. the screen did this "bendy" thing, but so far the computer is fine.. I just hope it stays that way. As for me, I now know not to try and walk with anything in my hands anymore. So if all continues to go well, this little baby has withstood my bad luck. I'd say it's a sturdy model. :)
This is great!!!! July 17, 2010

OK, I am not really computer literate but I can do what needs to be done. I did not want a heavy computer. My last laptop was a toshiba satelite but boy was it heavy. This little thing weighs 3 lbs. I love the full key board since I do type reports. I LOVE all the little features. Its fast, dependable, and did I say light weight. We purchased the little Acer aspirea netbook for $248 as an extra computer for my husband just to surf and look around. He loves his and we were quite amazed at what you got for $248. That is why we decided to go with the Acer again. I can't imagine someone not liking this. Setup was done in 10 minutes and your ready to go. Of course I know people do several different things and have different expectations but for me this is great. I surf, do reports, download pics, do alot of business and this is quite fast. I know some people have to find something wrong, And write about RAM and all of that. Which as soon as I start reading a review and see that I automatically skip to the next. Hope this helps and I would again....highly recommend this laptop/netbook.
