 Very good Windows 7 Computer October 28, 2009

I agree with the previous reviewer: I chose this model with the SU2300 because of the additional performance associated with the dual core CPU. Since I consider anything less than 13" a netbook (such as this) I had no need for a 250GB hard drive the other model came with. The version I am reviewing is BLACK in color.
The Pros of this model:
-Windows 7 Home Premium runs, in my opinion, faster than XP would. Fantastic!
-AERO runs great
-The beefy graphics card and HDMI-out works great for watching HD movies on HULU or Youtube and putting them on a big screen TV with HDMI
-2GB RAM!
-Decent webcam
-Draft N wireless
-Nice sized and sturdy keyboard
-Lightweight and the size of an 8x11 piece of paper (thicker of course)
-The battery does not stick out the back like other netbooks
The Cons:
-Speakers didn't sound loud enough when sitting on my lap, but headphones do the trick
-Touchpad is a little square, I wish it was a bigger rectangle
-No bluetooth yet the button to turn it on and off is still there, kind of odd
-Glossy shell leaves finger prints
-Acer Pre-installed Bloatware (games, norton backup, google toolbar, MacAfee trial, etc)
-NO Windows OEM DISK! This drives me nuts if you ever need to reinstall but I think Acer has some backup partition (Alt+F10 or something at start up)
In all, this computer is blazing fast, has Windows home premium, great for school, or work. I have not tested the battery life yet, but I assume it goes for about 4 or 5 hours of regular use since it is 6-cell.
Excellent ultraportable laptop October 31, 2009

This is an excellent ultraportable laptop. I feel the screen size is perfect for viewing without being overly small or requiring a large frame.
Windows 7 Home Premium runs very smoothly and is relatively quick. Make sure you tell windows update to ask you before you download and install updates, before it starts bogging down your internet connection and cpu whenever it wants to. Even when it does run the update, you can still run other programs at a relative pace. Picks up new devices and installs the drivers rather quickly.
I find the keyboard to be good enough that you can type rather quickly without making major mistakes. The bottom of the laptop gets somewhat warm but not boiling hot that you can't bear it. The fan is also a little loud, but not overly and not silent either.
I chose this specific model due to the faster processor. The price increase over a 10.1" Acer netbook is definitely worth it - you get Home Premium, 2gb ram, larger screen, and a dual core processor. HDMI is a plus as well (as I will soon connect this to my HDTV).
Only drawback in my opinion is that it should've come with the 250gb hard drive, but it was either that and the slower processor, or the better processor and a 160gb. External USB drives are cheap nowadays anyway, so faster processor it was. 3gb of ram would've been nice, but the 2gb definitely does the job well for basic computing.
Overall, a great buy and I'm very happy.
SU2300 versus SU3500 October 30, 2009

I own both this laptop with the dual core SU2300 and the model with the single core SU3500. The SU2300 feels quicker and has a lower cpu utilization for a given activity than the single core SU3500, but my initial observation is that the battery life may be less (~10%)for the SU2300 laptop. I'm curious to see what results the formal review sites get.
Real notebook, not netbook November 25, 2009

I was struggle for getting a notebook or cheap netbook. This notebook is only 3 lb with full size keyboard and soild built. With win7 preinstall, turn on time is 27 second before install all crazy microsoft auto updates, and 35-40 second after. Even with 2Gb Ram you can still run photoshop. The only problem I is when I use Endnote(for managing reference) cite whil you write function, computor was slow.
Internal Bluetooth module can be added December 1, 2009

There are many other excellent reviews of the machine itself here, so I won't bother re-iterating what they say other than to agree this machine is an excellent value for the money: The AS1810 series, while including additional bells and whistles that some people may need, doesn't get you as much bang for the buck as the AS1410 series.
That being said, one thing you might like to know is that you can add an internal Bluetooth module to this machine. They're available on eBay for less than twenty bucks, and while installing it requires completely disassembling the lower case after removing the keyboard, battery, and hard drive, the instructions provided (at least from the vendor I dealt with) were clear and installation took less than half-an-hour, going slowly and methodically through each step.
IMO this option is more attractive than the tiny USB Bluetooth dongles, as I seem to always be running out of USB ports!
