Selling Acer Aspire One Netbook (8GB SSD - 1.5GB RAM)

Hey there, basically I'm seriously loathing eBay and their ridiculous ways so I thought I would post in case anyone is interested.

It's a white Acer Aspire One, and whilst it has an 8GB SSD, I've upgraded the memory from 512MB to 1.5GB; so it's not exactly a horse and cart anymore...

It's been around since February, and I've stopped using it completely now I've got a half decent Desktop upstairs, so I'm just getting rid of it really.

The only defect is a scratch on the right side of the screen, which is unnoticable, especially during use, and it has a bit of mild wear on the top when you look very closely.

It also has one of those annoying rubber feet missing from the bottom, but it's no real issue and there's no compromise when it's rested down somewhere.

It performs well and I've enjoyed a few months using it, I'm just happy with a Desktop now.

I'll install any Linux build, or you can have the default Linpus Linux you get with them. Alternatively I can install XP Home with all of the drivers.

I'll strongly consider all offers, there's no real range as I'm just desperate to get rid of it now and don't exactly want it to gather dust.

Well a powerseller on eBay is trying to sell a severely damaged one for spares at £100, so I'm confident you're onto a winner ;P

Thanks a lot for your offer, I'm considering it and have sent you a PM for confirmation :)

Certainly is, thanks a lot :)

Get on MSN or re-add me, w.e. - I'm interested :)

My AAO has lost 2 of them annoying little feet, mine's a 1GB Ram 120GB HDD version and they are wicked, I'm running Windows 7 on mine and it's fine.
Great laptops! :D

Haha, they are nifty little things. Takes at least 8 hours to compact and install 7 on one though :P

I have a pending offer from Jason for £105 at this moment in time :)

Where the hell did you get that from?!?!? :S

Takes 20 minutes! It recognises it's a netbook and installs like a dream! Aero works fine too.

It might be quicker for me (7 hours and 40 minutes quicker) because mine has a bigger hardrive and more ram than the solid state one, I don't know, but either way it takes 20 minutes, half hour maximum. :D

I've had Vista installed on Acer Aspire One (SSD version) didn't take too long. Pointless beyond belief SSDs a nice idea but tested it against several other netbooks and found it didn't last as long as was slower to boot / wake up. - Luckily i didn't buy it and was given to me to test by work! nice to see that i could sell it for around £100 though!
