The Aspire One D150 is the evolution of the previews A110 series
To begin with I can claim to write from computer concerned without any problem.
The Aspire One D150 is the evolution of the previous A110 series, with the particularity of being equipped with a display of well-10.1 ", and readable (as wide as the short side of an A4 sheet).
My version is based, bought for just 299 euros in a statement the chain of distribution of technology products, so the package contained only a small manual, computer and power cord with the tiny processor. Unfortunately for this reason, protective case and mouse are to be purchased separately.
Equipped with Intel Atom N270 has a speed of 1600Mhz calculation very good and the 1GB RAM is enough to make travel more fluid computer.
Beware of fake experts who speak so hearsay, this computer is not just for internet and "office" as many claim, but you can install all the programs possible and imaginable, even the graphics provided you do not overdo it: the primary limitation is not the processor or
RAM (much more powerful computer than 4 or 5 years ago with whom they worked quietly) but the integrated video card, obviously much less performance compared to modern ones. This does not affect the operation of applications such as Photoshop or even a few games in three dimensions, as long as you use a lower resolution (which they are still good having a smaller screen). So this is a true ultra portable computer and thanks size of a book of 300 pages and weighing just over 1Kg. Moreover, since the eye wants its part, the aesthetic is very valuable because the available colors are blue, red, black and glossy white with black or gray interior color, glossy screen on the frame and mat streaks on Cover your keyboard.
The duration of microbatteries (all the hardware on this machine are truly micro) 3-cell is more than 2 hours using the computer to watch movies or work on it, if it even has a 6-cell battery (which sticks out from home as twice as large) that promises a range of 7 hours. Another important thing, you can easily reach it and take the RAM up to 2GB with a few euros.
The keyboard is full and well-exploited, some the size of the buttons are smaller than those of a laptop's largest and perhaps those with very large fingers might have some difficulty. The Hard Disk This is a fast 160Gb Sata magnetic well and then very large. Needless to say, has a beautiful built-in webcam, microphone, Wi-Fi next generation, three USB ports and hot air outlet on the left side, video output for external connections and Ethernet LAN.
Netbook (this is the category, even if limited) really light and portable, with Windows XP Home Edition installed and with sufficient performance to do what you want as a real computer, limited only by the graphics card is integrated, but until you have using advanced 3D design programs, there is no slowdown. Price / performance ratio significantly in favor, good aesthetic and functional at best, to purchase with your eyes closed if you already have a fixed location and portable instead of larger and more expensive. There being a player-CD / DVD burner integrated because of the size, if possible buy one separately because the packaging is not supplied recovery discs, but you can write them using a program installed. Tested with Windows XP GNU / Linux Ubuntu, no problem even if performance is at best a single operating system installed.
If you are undecided on buying a netbook like this buy it with my eyes closed but avoid the display below the 10.1 "and prices above $ 300 as no longer competitive compared to other notebooks cheap. The versions with Atom processor N280 from 1660Mhz you are slightly faster but not enough to justify a price difference. At most expect that future versions will have a SIM-card slot for internet always with him, but without the need for expensive memory sticks. If you want a real computer distrust Netbook with SSD Solid State Disk 8 or 16GB, are modern but not very efficient and spacious.
