Processor
The Intel Atom processor
uses a brand new design structure that packs in 47 million transistors
into a single chip sized at just 22mm (0.87 inches), and it uses just
2.5 watts of power--less than 1/10 of the 35 watts used by an Intel
Core 2 Duo processor--for excellent battery management. This 1.6 GHz
Atom N270 processor also includes a power-optimized front side bus of
533 MHz for faster data transfer on demanding mobile applications and a
512 KB L2 cache (which temporarily stores data).
Storage
This version of the Aspire One comes with a 160 GB hard disk drive
(5400 RPM), which offers enough to room to hold a digital audio library
of over 26,000 songs and still have room left over for movies, games,
and a large collection of software. This Serial ATA (SATA) hard drive
also quickens the pace with a higher speed transfer of data--akin to
Firewire and USB 2.0.
Memory
The 1 GB of installed RAM (512 MB onboard memory and one 512 MB DIMM, 533 MHz) can be expanded to a maximum of 1.5 GB of RAM,
DVD/CD Drive
Because of its size, the Aspire One does not come with an integrated
optical drive, but optional CD/DVD read/write drives can be connected
to the laptop via one of the three USB ports, enabling you to create
your music mixes, burn movies to DVD, and more.
Connectivity
This Acer Aspire One notebook has an integrated 54g wireless LAN (Acer
InviLink) that's compatible with 802.11b and 802.11g networks and

Screen, Video and Audio
The 8.9-inch screen has a WSVGA resolution (1024 x 600) and support for
up a 262K color depth. Video is powered by the Intel Graphics Media
Accelerator 950, which uses shared video memory with the main memory.
Acer's CrystalBrite display technology guarantees the best possible
visual experience by preventing the diffusion of surrounding light and
internal ray. Compared to normal TFT LCDs, Acer CrystalBrite technology
is able to read color coordinates more accurately, thus minimizing
distortion and creating high-fidelity colors in all environments.
This notebook includes an integrated audio card with Microsoft DirectSound compatibility, and it includes two stereo speakers.
