Acer Aspire One (AOA110-1722) First Impressions and Unboxing
The Acer Aspire One's home -- initially, at least.
Introduction
First, I’m a writer and my preferences may not mimic yours. I’m more concerned with the keyboard and screen than anything else. Battery life is also important, but everything else takes a backseat. However, in the interest of providing useful information to others, I’ll attempt to cover as many bases as possible. There’ll be more details (technical and otherwise) when the final review of the netbook is up.

Unboxing
As soon as the Acer One is yanked out of the box and the plastic bag its in, it’s immediately apparent that the high gloss finish is a fingerprint magnet. Similar to a Macbook, it picks up fingerprints and shows them off for everyone to see. A minor quibble, but certainly something that some people are endlessly frustrated by.
Welcome!
This is obviously still in the development stages, but come back soon for more information on Netbooks, SFF computing, and other such things.
First up will be an Acer Aspire One first impressions article followed by a review/comparison with the Eee PC 701. Depending on how things go with the Acer Aspire One, it may be followed by a review of the Eee Box.
