A first glance at the Acer Aspire One D150 seems as if Acer didn’t do anything new. It looks as if it just copied the features from its previous products on the Acer Aspire One line. However, it doesn’t mean that the Acer Aspire One line is not a good machine. Releasing a 10” netbook on the market may not mean much. This netbook though has a battery life that is longer that what other brands have to offer. It also has a screen that’s sharp and bright. Plus it’s sold at an affordable price.
The release of the Acer Aspire One D150 follows at the heels of the success of the Aspire One A series. It is also one of the Top 5 Netbooks of 2009. With the addition of Intel’s Atom N280 processor, the D150 just increased its performance. Although its 10.1” 1024×60 pixels CrystalBrite widescreen display is still better compared to others, there are complaints coming out regarding the glare caused by its glossy screen.
