Very good, only problem has been that I have had to restore the wireless connection twice in one month
My husband and I purchased this netbook to take along with us when we travel and for vacations. We have used it everyday since it arrived. The desktop pc is seldom on. I loved having the Acer when I was hospitalized. It made the days go by quickly. It is so light weight and the screen resolution is of great quality. Best purchase we have made!
This netbook fits my needs very well. Its great for air travel due to small size, light weight and long battery life. Keyboard is more than adequate. My gripe is with Amazon's pricing policies. Within days after receiving the netbook, I noticed that Amazon dropped the price by about 10%. A call to customer service was met with a "that's too bad for you" attitude. I asked the CSR to have a supervisor contact me. Never happened! I thought Amazon was better than that. Since then, I have used other vendors for purchases I probably would have made on Amazon where pricing was relatively the same. Loyalty is a two-way street.
I read the reviews before I purchased this, did my research in the stores to look for the N280 thing and the wireless N instead of G (I think that's right) - no local stores had the later stuff, so I went with Amazon. Thanks to those of you who are geeks out there for giving me the right letters and numbers to look for.I LOVE my little netbaby. I have a free Bible software including several translations of the Bible (6-7 whole versions of the Bible), several commentaries, other study aids. I have an intensive commentary series by one author that comes off a DVD, including hundreds of books/articles, and that all fit nicely on there. I also got Windows Live Writer added, and am blogging on the public transport system traveling each morning and evening. The battery isn't on the most economical setting, but I still get more than enough hours of work on it before I charge it back up at home. It boots very quickly and it ready to use after a minute or so, maybe less. I can quickly search a database with 6-7 Bible versions on it and have instant results. There is no problem accessing large databases quickly and efficiently.I carry a larger purse, but this netbook fits in it in a neoprene sleeve. I love the portability, the tiny size, and yet I'm able to type as fast as a regular keyboard - I'm a legal secretary, and I can type as fast as I think. My fingers are wider than some, but there's still room to type.The only con is, when I'm typing an email on the internet it is very slow. I have to wait for the computer to catch up to me. It takes several seconds after a few letters. That is frustrating. That's when I'm at home sending from our home wireless internet. I'm not sure if that's the netbook or my dsl cable service. My older laptop didn't do that. Maybe it's a ram issue - I did upgrade to the 2 GB thing. But the Windows Live Writer works great for the blog and is able to keep up with my thinking, so it has to do with the internet component than just the netbook alone I'm guessing.One thing my brother recommended was to choose wisely the security system - he recommended eSet as having a lower profile (files that use up hard drive) than other types. And after working on getting it to print to my wireless printer with Windows XP and Windows 7 computers, the Microsoft people said only run Windows 7 starter on it - it will bog down with the full version. So I'm guessing security software might do the same thing. Something to keep in mind.
I purchased this model after several days of reading review and research and I'm glad I've picked a right one. This was my christmas gift for my daughter who just entered a high school and wanted computer she could carry with her in her backpack. This model has very long lasting battery and window 7 works great without any of vista's problems. It has been 2 months now since her school started and not once she wanted any help with the computer. I was initially impressed with the speed,fit and finish and the graphic. My daughter loves using the camera chatting with her friends while doing her homework. The skype and youtube works great. All in all I have no complaint about this model at all.
