I recently bought an Acer Aspire One netbook. It has a 8.9” lcd screen, Intel Atom processor, 8gb Solid State Drive (SSD), 1gb ram, webcam, 3cell battery, and came preinstalled with Linux Linpus Operating System.

Some of these netbooks are cheaper than most mobile phones that can only do half as much as this notebook can. This is a hit for those always on the go like students and freelancers, or even telecommuting workers.

Running a standard windows installation on the Acer Aspire One’s SSD is soo slow so you need to have an nLited version (stripped-down essentials of Windows XP) in my case, TinyXP so I can run most of my applications like Microsoft Outlook, Yahoo Messenger and Google Chrome.

I also tried running Adobe Photoshop CS3 and Dreamweaver CS3 on this netbook and it loaded just fine except for the small screen you have to contend with.

Having a fully functional super portable netbook, with a bargain price like that? Who am I to complain. I love this machine.

Do you own a netbook? What functions does it serve you?
