Acer’s new netbook

Acer’s new netbook titled ‘Acer Aspire One Happy,’ what a mouthful!

Netbooks, what are they? Ever since we saw the release of tablets netbooks have been pushed aside a little however this may all change over the coming months if Acer can do enough to convince us that the Happy is a worthy buy for £229.

The second generation of the Happy is compact and is from the new Aspire Timeline X series providing a 10.1-inch screen and a 1024-600-pixel resolution, not the best resolution however not at all bad considering the price.

Acer have specifically targeted a younger audience with the Happy from the colours on offer, we have ‘Banana Cream’,’ Blueberry Shake’,’Strawberry Yoghurt’ and ‘Papaya Milk.’

Good thing is, the specs are unexpectedly not bad. Here’s what you can expect from the Happy: an Intel Atom processor running at a speed of 1.66GHz, Bluetooth 3.0, 802.11n Wi-Fi, a battery life of up to 8 hours, a webcam which is always handy and an optional 3G modem on offer.

So what do you think, let me know below.

Chrome, get it on Samsung’s netbook

Samsung are first to ship their new Series 5 netbooks with Chrome OS.

If you are the sort of person who uses your laptop to check out YouTube, browse through your emails, surf the web, if so you will then want to get your hands on the new Samsung Series 5 netbooks running Chrome OS.

We all love our devices to be thin and attractive, come on be honest so Samsung have achieved through a thin casing and white lid. The weight is just over 2kg so its light enough to take around with you wherever you ago.

Now thanks to Google making nearly everything run from the Internet there is no need for a fast processor so the Samsung Series 5 runs on a dual-core Atom chip. However, it is still more than capable of a fast boot up.

Stay connected through Wi-Fi and a 3G adapter as well for an extra bit of money. Google Chrome will also feature an offline mode and expect a battery life of eight hours or more connected to the Internet or not.

The netbook will cost £349 or if you want 3G, £399.  Get your hands on the Samsung’s Series 5 on June 24th.
