Acer AO751H REVIEW (same as Acer LT3000) (Acer Aspire One 751)

With so many netbook manufactures now breaking into the 10-inch+ screen limit, Acer was no way going to left behind in the business where it actually rules.The Acer A0751H is the first Acer Aspire One to sport an Intel Atom Z 520 processor that is clocked at 1.3GHz. However, the best part of this netbook is its resolution: 1366 x 768 px, which gives it an obvious edge over its competitors. So, was it able to impress us?

ASUS EEE S101H REVIEW – Detailed!

After the sweet success of ASUS EEE S101, ASUS rolled out a hard disk version of it, the EEE S101H. It is built along the lines of S101.

ASUS EEE 1008HA – couple of benchmarks, start up and shut down time

UPDATE: CLICK HERE TO READ FULL REVIEW of ASUS EEE 1008HA

Some people are highly into benchmarks and their sometimes, even their buying decisions are solely based on the benchmarks.

Here is the screenshot of Crystal Disk Mark:

It is obvious that you would want us to compare Disk Mark results of other netbooks.

This is from EEE 1000HE (reviewed here). Clearly, EEE 1000HE is a bit faster in terms on HDD performance

This is from EEE 1002HA (reviwed here).

Now, for those who care about the actual working of the netbook and just do not make their buying decisions solely on the benchmark numbers, EEE 1008HA is a not a slow machine by any means. It is as zippy as EEE 1000HE in real world use. Both use the same processor, Atom N280 which runs at slightly higher clock speed than the Atom N270 (1.66GHz versus 1.6GHz).

Boot up and Shut Down times

The boot up times are very good. See the following video to see how much time does it takes to boot up and for shutting itself down.

It took it just 1 second (yes, just one second!) to move into standby mode and 4 seconds to come out of standby mode. Pretty zippy for netbook.
