Power-Sipping Processor Newly designed from the ground up, the Intel Atom Z520 uses a 45nm (nanometer) design structure with new hafnium-infused circuitry--which reduces electrical current leakage in transistors--to conserve even more energy and give you more time away from the wall outlet. The Intel Atom Z520 provides a 1.3 GHz CPU speed with a 533 MHz front-side bus (FSB) and 512 KB L2 cache--which uses just 2 watts of power. (An L2, or secondary, cache temporarily stores data; and a larger L2 cache can help speed up your system's performance. The FSB carries data between the CPU and RAM, and a faster front-side bus will deliver better overall performance.) It supports Intel's 64-bit computing architecture, which can allow the use of extended virtual and physical memory with compatible 64-bit software, as well as Intel's Hyper-Threading technology for speedier multitasking.

The Multi-Gesture Touchpad enables you to scroll, zoom in and out and flip through web pages, photos, spreadsheets and more.

Great system, very portable yet nice sized screen and keyboard October 4, 2009 K. Salinger (Bay Area, California) 14 out of 15 found this review helpful
I have both this acer, the 11.6 inch with 8 hour battery life (reality: think 6ish if you have multiple windows open and in use), and also the little tiny 8.9" acer with extended battery life (reality for this one, think 41/2 hours battery life) as well.
I first bought the 8.9" acer for travel and portability and I had a bigger laptop at home that I used for writing reports and other, bigger, projects.
However, my bigger computer died, and while I love my tiny acer and use it 80% of the time, when it comes to using my word processing program, I am lucky to see perhaps one paragraph of text because 1/2 the screen is taken up by the WP program with it's various menus,selections, buttons and other options you use when creating your document.
I decided I needed a bigger computer again, in addition to my tiny acer and bought the 11.6 inch Acer. I love it almost as much as my tiny acer (and likely would have been completely happy with just it alone had I bought it first, as it is smaller than I anticipated, yet has a great screen size & good battery life).
In hind sight I should have considered the 11.6 inch acer when I first bought the 8.9" tiny acer, but 11.6" 'sounded' so big, and I was seeking maximum portability.
I'm very surprised by the mixed reviews I've seen for the 11.6" Acer - I have no complaints at all. However, I think folks don't realize as "netbooks" these are different systems than they were likely used to (with the standard laptops) and you need to be cognizant of that and have realistic expectations and adjust how you use the systems accordingly.
I've had no problems with waking from standby, blue screen system errors, or any of that as mentioned by others. I personally think issues such as that are dependent upon your settings, usage, programs on board and in use (both active and running in the background, etc.
One of the first things I did with both the 8.9" and 11.6" Acers was remove the McCaffe security program that came installed, and put on the kaspersky for netbooks security system. They have a program optimized specifically for netbooks and it makes a big difference in the performance of your system. Also, if you're a mouse loving person, go out and get a USB mouse for use at home, and pick up a USB DVD drive as well if you feel a burning need. However, now days you can download just about everything you need - I think the only time I've used my USB DVD/CD drive was to load a printer driver and a bunch of music CD's so I could synch the music to my zune.
The acer's are GREAT systems for the price, and for me, just as functional as my previous $1400 laptop (that conveniently died after 1 1/2 years...) With the price of the Acer's, so what if it ends up dying in 1 1/2 - 2 years? It's so inexpensive, and technology moves forward so fast, I'll likely be ready for the next generation of acers that are out when the time comes. However, should you decide to adopt my attitude, just make sure you do regular back ups to an external drive and/or to one of the online back-up systems out there. That way you still have all your stuff and don't have mental trauma from the loss of your data.
Someone had a comment about their inability to return their acer to Amazon. Obviously I don't know all the details, but you can return electronics within 30 days if it's malfunctioning (which to me, I'd have considered the skype problems a malfunction and returned it) - Perhaps they bought it from a 3rd party vendor through Amazon? Anyways, as a long-term Amazon shopper I've not had issues with returning items that didn't perform as needed and part of my reason from buying from Amazon has been their easy return policy.
Go buy the 11.6" Acer - it has a great size, still small enough to fit in a briefcase, messenger bag or big purse, yet a nice screen size that doesn't limit functionality.
The ideal computer for ultra-portability October 23, 2009 Ashley Hotz (Fairbanks, Alaska) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I got my Acer Aspire One Netbook in the mail yesterday, finally. I have to say, I am pretty satisfied. I'm really liking how big the keyboard is...I was worried that it would have been really cramped and very uncomfortable for typing. The battery life is amazing, it lasts up to 8 hours! I'm really glad that it has Windows XP as the OS instead of Vista. But the thing that really makes me happy about it is how light and compact it is. The ultra-portability makes it really easy for me to take it anywhere I want without it being an extreme hassle. All for $300...this is the ideal computer for someone who wants to participate in NaNoWriMo!
Naysayers it's time to believe! Win 7 better than XP on netbooks! November 15, 2009 A. Nichols (Lehigh Valley, PA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I just bought this netbook about 4 weeks ago and who says it cant run Vista or Windows 7?
I am sick of the Open Source Commie crew of capitalist hating Mircorsoft bashers and all their BS....
IN FACT.... Because the GMA 500 graphics in this netbook is capable of running DriectX 10 it actaully runs better with Vista than Xp and when you upgrade to Windows 7 it really shines having a noticable improvement when doing things like watching Flash vidos online! I know this because I used it for a wekk with XP, then installed a spare copy of Windows Vista Home Premium I had and after Windows 7 came out I bought a copy and tried it too. So I base this info on first hand real world testing. Will it replace a full size laptop? NO, yet no one ever said a netbook would....
For info on how to install Windows Vista or Windows 7 with a flash drive see this web page from Microsoft Tech Net with a how to video..
[...]
Now with that said, This netbook is my favorite portable that I have ever owned dating back to the mid 90's and my first notbook an NEC with Win 95. Is it the most powerful? Again No, so keep that in mind and if you do not have a desktop or full sized laptop I would not reccomend buying ANY netbook as your main computer. With that said, this thing is like an extension of myself and it's with me for most of the day. Fist thing in the moringin I use it to surf and listen to my local AM talk radio show. After that I throw it in my electricans bag, take off for the day and use if for anything from reading E Books and PDF files in the field, to watching youtube videos. Keep in mind it does get a little bogged down when watching video but that is comparing it to a 2.16 Mhz dual core Pentium Laptop or my Quad Core desktop.
Battery life is the reason I bought model and this is where it really shines!
This netbook really does provide all day computiing without a cord and from a fully charged battery it lasts from the time I get up in the morning till the time come home for dinner in the evening. In fact one day I did my own test, while doing some renovations to my bathroom. I used it to listen to Americas Anchorman on my favorite local talk radio station from a little after Noon till 3PM, followed by Hannity from 3-6PM, then my local guy from 6-7PM streaming over the internet with speakers at almost full volume. In total it lasted about 6 1/2 hrs under theese condtions with some battery to spare....
My new Acer is ACE! October 19, 2009 R. Frost 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
I love this little netbook! The 11.6 size is just perfect and it doesn't make my hands look too big or anything! Its quick and has a crisp little webcam.
Love it!
Great Little Netbook February 6, 2010 Gary Walker (USA) I really like this netbook. Its light and has the full resolution screen. I do find that I use a wireless mouse when I am doing Windows work. Its big enough to do real work on. The wifi works great and will latch on in most places. Make sure that you know about the slide switch on the lower left of the keyboard which turn on and off wifi. I find the screen nice, but would like a little more contrast at times. I have trouble seeing the vertical sliders of some windows apps. The battery really is 8 hours, and I don't take my charger with me on weekends--but I don't do videos.
I think its a home run. I will probably go for an iPad in a couple of months. I think its a step up, but of course at a significant uptick in price. I did opt for a Runcore SSD, which has made it a bit faster.
