Acer Dual Core Netbook, €225 @ Argos

Quaderno · 2010-12-01 19:08:12

The first time ever I've seen a dual core Atom in a netbook. The price seems to be right: http://www.argos.ie/static/Product/partNumber/5084265.htm And the best: it's actually available in a number of Argos stores right now and can be ordered in the others.

I bought one of the Acer netbooks this thread is about and unless you get it for a good price I wouldn't bother. It's fairly slow after having it for about 6 months. Maybe spend a bit more on a faster machine and avoid netbooks wherever possible.

what you doing on it. You say avoid netbooks at all costs. Mine is very fast and handy for my use. Yes it isnt made for high performance applications but this laptop is great for what it does.

I still get about 6 hours on the battery and boot up time is handy and the OS is simple. Exactly what i wanted and glad i picked it up.
