Handy Computer Guide

A review of the Acer Aspire One sub-notebook PC has been posted over at Computeractive. 'The One looks smart, with a white case and shiny black bezel around the 9in 1,024x600 pixel screen. The screen isn’t particularly bright, but it is good enough for browsing online and for work. Acer has employed a lot of font smoothing, though, so text doesn’t appear as pin-sharp as it does on some others. Along the two sides are sockets: three USB, network, monitor, headphone, microphone and memory card readers. The card reader on the right side works like a normal one, but the one on the left can be used to expand the computer's main storage: a memory card inserted there will add its capacity automatically to the main storage (instead of a hard disk it uses an 8GB memory chip).'
