Acer AO532h-2588 10.1-Inch
Acer 10 Inch Specs:
- 1.66 GHz Intel Atom N450 Processor
- 1GB DDR2 Memory

- 10.1″ WSVGA Acer CrystalBrite LED Display, Intel GMA 3150 Graphics

We extremely recommend putting in a 2GB RAM module (I used an 800MHz one) and, in the event you like, a larger tough drive. The additional RAM gives Windows 7 room to breathe and speeds things up noticeably. After you upgrade the RAM as well as the OS to a higher edition of Windows 7, install the Acer VGA driver for Windows 7 and then you’ll have the correct screen resolution and you’ll be able to run in Aero mode.
For web surfing, use Google Chrome and it runs much faster than IE8 or Firefox on this machine. Chrome is a great choice mainly because now you can add extensions, like ad blockers, to it. Basically, if you’re like most individuals and 90% of what you do on a personal computer is social networking (Twitter, Facebook, etc.), browsing the web, word processing, email and other easy tasks — well, this machine is all you require.
Finally, remember, it’s a Netbook. Not a desktop or even a regular laptop. Should you wish to do any serious gaming, forget it, but it will operate some games. You can find netbook web sites that are quite helpful and some of them even have game recommendations for netbooks.

This notebook is really is genuinely simple to carry around. If you hate carrying my full size laptop back and forth to function. This one slips nicely into my bag. When we tested Battery life we got about 4 hours from the battery. We think we could squeeze much more out if I utilized the power saving choice and turned off the wireless when I’m not using it. Still great enough that you don’t have to bring your power cord with you to operate unless your going to use it all day.
