Acer intros its first Windows 7 netbook, Aspire One D250
The Aspire One D250's remaining specifications include USB, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR connectivity, an all-in-one card reader, a webcam, and a multi-touch trackpad. Acer will offer its new netbook in Japan with up to a six-cell battery that provides a maximum life of 7.5 hours.
The company expects to launch its Windows 7-equipped Aspire One D250 parallel with the new operating system's October 22 release date, at a price of ¥46,800 -- which is roughly $553.

Atom is only a 32-bit cpu, so you can't use 64 bit Windows on it anyway... |

The starter edition makes sense. Acer wants to keep the cost down and avoid performance issues. A wise move with a new OS.. |

Two complaints on the product, the price at US$553 seems about $200 too high when I compare it's sepcs to a Windows XP Netbook that out currently. And a missing NVidia Ion or NVidia Ion 2 option is a deal breaker for me. And the limitations in Windows Starter Edition seem arbitrary, but I don't think that this hardware would produce a good experience in Windows Seven Home Premium. |
