[Melbourne-pm] Acer Aspire

[leif.eriksen at salmat.com.au]

And for those playing at home , the updated Eee's with the new 10"
screen are $687 at JB

Copied straignt from the ad
EeePC 10" Netbook
Intel Atom
1GB RAM
80GB HDD
802.11b/g/n
1.3M webcam
4.5 hr battery life
XP home ( maybe you can get a refund from M$ )

So 1" more screen, double the RAM and 72GB more disk, but it's a
spinner, not solid state.
The Aspire probably gets massive battery life from the SSD.
