This Acer Aspire One with 11.6″ screen, 1GB RAM, 160 GB Hard Drive, 802.11G Wi-Fi and Windows XP Home SP3 is a relative bargain for $280 shipped from J&R. I use a slightly smaller version of this computer and while I wish the keyboard was backlit you can’t beat the small size for carrying this on a plane or throwing into a briefcase during daily travel. I’ve used my Netbook to connect into client sites via Remote Desktop without a hitch. What it lacks in processing horsepower it makes up for in far superior battery power and convenience.
