On My Acer Aspire One
Sun, November 30, 2008 - 9:32 PM PST
I joined the 21st century yesterday when I bought a new laptop: an Acer Aspire One. It's a teeny tiny "netbook" that weighs two pounds. I'm still getting used to the slightly smaller keyboard and the orientation of the keys as well as the location of the trackpad buttons (they're on the sides rather than the bottom), but overall I'm pretty happy with the functionality and size vs cost; it was under $400 and obviously outperforms my old G3 iBook while also being considerably smaller and with decent support for Linux and BSD.
