Review:
I got my Aspire One in January 2009, mine came pre-loaded with Windows XP 160GB hard drive and 1GB of Ram. It is great, I take it on the Train and everywhere I go really its so small and light. Sometime I wish the screen was a inch or two bigger but it is fine for internet browsing and witting word documents. It certainly isn't a gaming PC with only 1GB of RAM and the Intel Atom processor only being a slightly pathetic 1.6GHz although its much better than my old Toshiba Satellite Pro L10-333 which had Intel Celeron M which was 1.4GHz and it only had 512MB of RAM so my Aspire One is much better equipped.

Acer Aspire One D250 Android
Pretty average netbook, and the Android OS is more of a hindrance than a help
Samsung R520
Not a bad budget laptop, but the bigger R720 is a much better option if portability isn't a prime concern
