Acer Aspire One AO721 Netbook

The Acer Aspire One AO721 utilizes an AMD Athlon II Neo K125 processor optimized to improve energy efficiency and delivering the performance needed to run multiple applications and features. The AMD Athlon II Neo processor and ATI Radeon HD 4225 Graphics with 384MB of dedicated system memory, mean that the Aspire One is well-equipped for mobile performance. You can multitask, even when running visually-intense, hi-definition applications, and explore the Internet, send and receive emails, watch videos and play games – all on the go using the netbook's battery power source.

Another very important feature is that the Acer A0721 is sold with Windows 7 Home premium as standard, a significant plus. You really should not be buying netbooks that use Windows 7 Starter Edition- you will only end up upgrading, which will cost at least another $50

The cover is black matte, mesh-textured cover to limit fingerprints and smudges, the whole unit is less than one-inch thick and wieghs around 3 pounds.
