Acer Aspire One AOA110-1113 Blue Intel Atom N270(1.60GHz) 8.9"

There was a good deal on black friday for this netbook which just weighs 2.13 lb s.
I bought it and it has Linux pre-installed :-) .
I  bought this primarily for my mom in India so that she can voice chat with my family and watch us on webcam.
This is a very decent computer for that purpose .It is very light-weight and packs all the needed hardware like Wi-Fi/Webcam etc on such a small form factor.

Pros
  • Very light weight
  • Nice shiny/glossy screen
  • Does what it says :-).
  • Good quality parts.
  • Wi-Fi works out of the box(major boon for Linux users)
Cons
  • Very difficult to Upgrade memory or Hard drive.No way to do it without voiding the warranty.
  • SSD on this is extremely slow.
  • Cant use it for a lot of typing on the smaller keyboard

Overall, I like this laptop.
