Ramakrishnan · 10-01-2009, 09:46 PM

For an additional sum of Rs.2000(approx) you could get XP home. My dealer told me that as soon as they bring this particular lappies, they get sold immediately. On you tube I saw one video where Adobe cs4 is working very nicely in this lappy.

Tech.Masti · 10-01-2009, 11:02 PM

What about battery backup?

Joker · 11-01-2009, 01:50 PM

can anyone tell me whether it is better than the dell inspiron mini 12??

Charan · 11-01-2009, 02:25 PM

This is impresive

NucleusKore · 11-01-2009, 02:38 PM

Before any of you decide to buy Acer ONE do read this
ASUS eeepc 1000H

**MetalheadGautham** · 11-01-2009, 06:03 PM

^^But thats DOUBLE the cost!

Aspire One looks wonderful at Rs. 14499/-. Whats the price including taxes ?
Any issues with build, battery or performance ?

Edit: is this the three cell or the six cell model ?

Ramakrishnan · 11-01-2009, 07:55 PM

three cell model.

Faun · 11-01-2009, 09:25 PM

Can someone tell me whether it is a decent VFM product. And exact price and configuration.

Ramakrishnan · 12-01-2009, 03:07 PM

if you don't mind small screen, have no idea of playing latest games and then this can be yours. I feel this is VFM for the size and config.

sakumar79 · 12-01-2009, 03:39 PM

Can the netbook be connected to external monitor and keyboard/mouse for ease of use when at home/office?

sakumar79 · 12-01-2009, 04:58 PM

@Ramakrishnan, Thanks for the info

Arun

pulkit_aga · 12-01-2009, 09:36 PM

ya at this price it is VFM but on the otherside of coin this decrease in price is to clear the stock as acer will be launching 10" screen version of aspire one in feb.
also lots of new netbooks are to be launched by various companies in 2-3 months

IronManForever · 13-01-2009, 09:56 PM

It is definitely VFM and its the way netbooks should be. Thats what they are for; I do not need optical sound out and 1080p playback on a netbook. Rather, lower the prices.

These companies introduce new models and do away with old models.

**MetalheadGautham** · 14-01-2009, 01:40 PM

You won't see much difference b/w 10" and 9". Its actually GOOD that we are having a clearence sale. 10" would be slightly more bulky. I myself had a 10" laptop, and by slightly reducing screen size it doesn't make much difference.

And yeah, the 3-cell means it has about 3hrs battery backup.
Whats the cost of the 6-cell version ?

NucleusKore · 14-01-2009, 05:17 PM

I am waiting for any forum member to post here. I want to know the REAL price with tax fax and all that.

Faun · 14-01-2009, 05:23 PM

^^thats what am too waiting for.

**MetalheadGautham** · 14-01-2009, 06:18 PM

^^

I guess I will have to join you two hypocrats. Lets wait for someone to be the guinea pig and buy this, then we will make our moves

IronManForever · 14-01-2009, 06:51 PM

^^ these linboys!

Faun · 14-01-2009, 07:36 PM

^^wot ?

shaddap !

Faun · 15-01-2009, 12:07 AM

^^He will need to sell his iPod to get his dream mac nonetheless

Every shiny thing looks cool for few days but after that the original thoughts wears out at an exponential 7% rate until you decide to buy another one or you get a gist of the working of your never ending desirous mind (and put a slap everytime it wheedle you for another thing).

IronManForever · 15-01-2009, 01:49 PM

^ Gotcha! You've been following those Apple threads secretly haven't you?

Yeah yeah, it was impulse when I bought the iPod.. I 'm not even able to use half of what it can do. We don't have enough hotspots, and I don't have a credit card to buy Apps.

Given the choice, Id definitely go for this Netbook. But then, my dad wouldn't buy me the macbook, thinking I already have a laptop..
