Check out this brand new video from the guys from Netbook News. They’re in Barcelona at the Acer stand at the MCW right now and this is a pretty good review of the Acer Aspire One 532G, the first 10-inch Netbook with Intel Atom N450 and NVIDIA Ion 2. Basically with these two little gizmos, [...]

Just saw this video of the new Ferrari One netbook from the guys at notebooks.com. Now I’ve seen them (I wrote the brochure dammit!) and I’m also getting one in a few weeks and I’ll film it for you but until then, or until someone else puts up another video, here’s the best review I’ve [...]

C’mon, you know we’re R&B kings at Acer. Yeah, you can feel our soul through the corporate website I know – we’re just oozing rhythm and soul. You see an Acer and the first thing you think of is MTV music awards…

All joking aside, the marketing company helping Acer in the USA obviously has some pretty cool contacts and for the first time, we’ve had products placed in a music video.

Sascha from Netbook News posted what is probably the world’s first review of the 10″ Aspire One that is definitely worth a look.

I think I should clear something up (or start a debate) though. Although this is for all intents and purposes the second model from the Aspire One range, it is by no means to be considered a second-generation netbook. I’ve seen the road map, talked to the bosses, named some of the models and know what’s coming and the advances in both design and specs of the second (and then third gen. models) are astounding.

Hello to all! Passed 6 days already, but I still like to say Merry Christmas (I am so late on this) and HAPPY NEW YEAR. I know that there are some significant increases in the numbers of Aspire One users (don’t you just love birthdays and Christmases?), so I’d like to extend an official welcome [...]
