Acer Aspire One D260 10.1-Inch Netbook

Beauty to Behold

There’s no doubt about it, this is a gorgeous netbook. And yes, it’s designed with ultra-mobility in mind, but one glance at this mini-PC with its slim lines and glossy wrap-around casing with subtle flake design and you’ll be hard-pressed to take your eyes off of it. Available in four distinct shades including; a luxe shade of black (Black Flake), dashing charcoal (Charcoal Flake), innocently-tinted pink (Pink Flake) and a fervently-colored purple (Purple Flake)—there’s a personal ID for everyone

Hit the Accelerator

It’s pedal to the metal speed for this little netbook. Not only does it come with a powerful processor, but the platform it’s equipped with is the Intel Atom Processor N455, specifically designed to rev-up the performance of netbooks, while also providing some pretty awesome ‘oomph!’ to this DDR3-packing system.

Fully Caffeinated

These days, the option to outlast the daylight is a necessary detail to daily life. Thankfully, the AOD260 lasts as long as your day. With a battery life that boasts up to 10 hours (on a 6-cell option), or a lighter weight alternative with a 3-cell battery1, this netbook is the essential choice to tote along on travels, be it the cross-town commute or the cross-country jaunt.

Carry On

While it won’t fit into the recommended quart-sized bag with your toiletries, there’s no mistaking this netbook’s chic 1″ thin, totally designed for mobility form factor. Plus, weighing in at just over 2 ½ pounds, this little beauty is easily stowed in your purse or carry-on with no problem. Plus, with a battery-life that goes all-day1, you’ll be contented to enjoy your multimedia—even on that red-eye from L.A. to N.Y.C.

Connecting Your World

Need to link-up to a web conference in London or simply chat with your mom a state away? No problem. Simply turn-on this mini-PC and get chatting via the integrated webcam with 1280 x 1024 resolution and built-in digital microphone. Plus, connectivity on the AOD260 rocks, thanks to the incorporated Ethernet LAN, while advanced wireless connectivity with 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi CERTIFIED™ with Acer InviLink™ makes staying connected a breeze.
