For one thing, they wont incorporate the extra memory into local storage, and for another, you wont actually be able to insert another memory card (if, for example, you want to get the pictures off your camera) without removing this extra space. Of course thats mostly a good thing, in that it drives down prices and gives more choice to the consumer. Its fair to say that if a company this size chooses to enter a market, it will have enough muscle to make a go of it. Even the name suggests that Acer is keen to make a splash in the netbook arena, with the Aspire One intimating that this is the netbook to buy. What we have before us today is the most basic and thus also the cheapest configuration, featuring an Intel Atom 1.6GHz, 8GB SSD flash drive and only 512MB of RAM. While this is not exactly enough to run Windows XP properly, its certainly adequate for the included custom distribution of Linux that this netbook runs. Windows XP versions will also be available, with up to 1GB of RAM, a 120GB HDD, and a six-cell battery, rather than the three-cell our model came with. Admittedly, the hard drive and larger battery do affect the Ones size and weight, upping its dimensions from 249 x 170 x 29mm (WxDxH) to 249 x 195 x 36mm and increasing the weight from just under a kilo to 1.26kg, but thats unavoidable. Like most netbooks these days, the Aspire One comes in a variety of colours, but in this case there are some unusual choices. Admittedly, SeaShell White is nothing out of the ordinary, and Coral Pink is pretty much a given, but I wouldnt have bet on the remaining two being Sapphire Blue and Golden Brown for one thing, what happened to black You know, the colour of expensive cameras, consoles, televisions and other cool, high-end technology gear Having resigned myself to blue as the next best choice, lets see if the Aspire One holds its own aesthetically. The top of the lid looks a bit like it has been enamelled, though it is as susceptible to fingerprints and scratches as any other shiny coating. The keyboard is matte black, which doesnt give it the most cohesive of looks when combined with the reflective black bezel and shiny blue surface that makes up the rest of the Ones upper chassis, including the touchpad not that were complaining about the keyboard being matte. While these certainly add to the Ones individuality, Im not so sure theyre an inspired design decision. Still, with the sides and base matte black to match the keyboard, overall the One is moderately attractive. Moving onto connectivity, the One is pretty average, with one unique touch and some nice future potential. On the right side, there is a memory card reader that will handle SDHC, MMC, MSPRO and xD. This is joined by two USB 2.0 ports, headphone and microphone jacks and like on most netbooks youll also find a Kensington lock point. On the other side is the power jack, VGA out, LAN and a further USB port. We then come to a unique feature that elevates the Aspire One a little beyond mediocrity and the competition: an extra SD(HC) card slot. Now obviously theres a bit more to this than just the ability to put two memory cards in at once since the extra slot acts as storage expansion, meaning you can easily and cheaply expand the native 8GB already present. The One will incorporate any SD memory card into its file system through an application it calls Smart System Management, showing the joint storage devices as a single unified space. This worked flawlessly when I tried it with a 16GB SDHC card, effectively tripling the Ones capacity in the blink of an eye. ![]()
