Acer Aspire One the one to beat?

I know I've focused a lot on the subnote market right now but with Computex going on, it's what I'm currently really excited about.

Acer has just officially announced their Aspire One sub-note PC. For the most part the specs are the same as in other Atom-based sub-notebooks, but in my opinion they're the only one since Asus to fully grasp what I think make them so interesting: portability and affordability. With up to 10-inch displays, traditional hard drives, weight of almost 1.3kg and prices up to 500€, many of the other upcoming entries to the market have got closer and closer to their full-featured 12-inch brothers in these aspects.

Arguably the best feature of Aspire One is the price. Starting at only £199 (€253 or $390) it's giving even the original Eee a run for its money and with a weight of under 1kg it's much lighter than possibly its biggest competitor, MSI Wind PC. And when it's supposedly coming out here in Europe as early as this month, it's hard not to get excited. I also like the fresh design, different colours and the fact that they didn't make it a "cheap laptop for the kids". I only hope the build quality will be better than what has typically been associated with Acer...
