All seems a bit odd. If you buy it at £129.99 and it is 80gb you're entitled to a refund under their own returns policy (if you do not open it, 28 days?) or under the distance selling regulations (7days). You can just take it back to a shop so no worries about it getting lost in the post etc

Spikey_2

worth ringing customer services? regarding the price thing?

I just kept retrying the site and eventually it went into the basket at £129.99! I don't understand why....

Are you running a "full" XP installation, or something custom such as TinyXP instead?

I am also running a full install of XP SP3 on the Acer One 160gb version with only 512mb of ram, it runs fine, boots in less than 30 seconds from power on to desktop, just made sure I didn't load lots of programs on that I didn't really need, it has AVG, VLC Player and Skype on there, it surfs, I watch Sports Channels from around the world on it, 512mb runs absolutely fine.............

the bluetooth dongle from dealextreme is brilliant too, its tiny so you can plug it in and it still fits inside the faux leather cover that comes with the netbook

and just incase anyone is interested lol! just upgraded the battery to a 7200mah (or whatever) off ebay for £39 delivered, its now giving 7h 40 min on one charge, the extra battery size does add a little to the weight but it provides a nice slight tilt for typing and ventilation too
