Acer Aspire One is a line of subcompact notebook computers, or netbooks, released in July 2008 by Acer Inc.[2] It is based on the Intel Atom platform, which consists of the Intel Atom N270 processor, Intel 945GSE Express chipset and Intel 82801GBM (ICH7M) I/O controller.[3] The line is manufactured for Acer Inc. by Quanta Computer,[4] and is available in several shell colors: seashell white, sapphire blue, golden brown, onyx black, and coral pink. Its main competitors in the low-cost netbook market are the Asus Eee PC line and the Dell Inspiron Mini 9.
CNET editors' review has been positive[5], although held reservations as the Aspire One is early to market and many netbooks are planned for the near future.
