I bought my first portable computer in 1996 for ,000US (a Dell laptop with Intel P1-250MHz), then a second one in 2002 for ,500US (a Dell inspiron laptop P4-2000MHz/512-ram), and now this is my third portable computer an Acer Aspire One AOP 531H with Intel Atom N270 (1,600MHz), 1Gb Ram, 160GB HDD, an integrated webcam, Bluetooth and WiFi for only 0US –> WoW!
Prior to owning this machine, I had been carting around an Apple iBook for years. After two days wasted trying to install a piece of software that I was certain was supported by Windows, I finally gave up and purchased one of these netbooks.

I asked a number of FedEx or UPS and they told me that I had to send my dime. I find it absolutely unacceptable. If the product sucks, dont do the people who were willing to try... " | |
