I already have 2 HP laptop PCs but with one failingand a desire to have something a little smaller I started on a 3 week exploration for one of the new netbooks.I did extensive and exhaustive researchreading especially the AmazonPC Magazineetc reviews. I did not have CD or DVD requirementsnor did I want excessive bells and whistles. It should be noted that in evaluating and reading the reviews(especially those in Amazon) the model number does not always check out with the item reviwed. In other words I often found a review supposedly evaluating the d250-1042 when it fact it was a d250-1383.Also some of models with different model #s were all the same except for the price and the color! I finally selected the 1383 and it is perfect!! It came before it was promisedwas very well packaged and set up easily. It is a little sparce on instructions and I am not at all computer-adept; but You-Tube & the aforementioned reviews made set up easy. I uninstalled a number of the unwanted and unneeded programs and it has worked like a charm. It boots up within 35 secondsworks very smoothly and has caused no problems. It has Windows 7 Starterwhich I initially did not want but it seems to be working well and moves from one program to the next easily. Ive only used it unplugged 3 or 4 times but each time the battery has lasted well into the 5-7 hour range. Its key boardtho small is not too small and I am a peck and poke typist anyway.The Asus and the Toshiba are better and more expensive netbooks; but for the price this Acer Aspire One 1383 red beauty cant be beat!
