Acer has just announced that it will be offering a couple more versions of their highly popular Aspire One netbooks, although these won’t sport the hugely popular Atom processor but will instead throw in the powerful Athlon II Neo processors complete with AMD-based high-definition capabilities. We’re talking about the 11.6-inch Aspire One AO721 and the 10.1-inch Aspire One AO521, where both models were specially designed for ultra-portability and usability, and are more than capable of delivering high-definition graphics and video playback, alongside smooth communications. Targeting the US market, both the Aspire One AO721 and AO521 are available at retail and e-tail outlets with prices starting from $429.99
You will also find that either netbook is no slouch when it comes to graphical performance, where the ATI Radeon HD 4225 Graphics has 384MB of dedicated system memory to help you out further if you decide to indulge in some games. The Aspire One AO721 is equipped with a high-definition 11.6-inch CrystalBrite LED backlit display that offers the largest viewing area on an Acer netbook to date. It will come in a black matte, mesh-textured cover that ensures you won’t need to wipe away fingerprints too often due to smudging. Measuring less than an inch thin and tipping the scales at 3 pounds, the Aspire One AO721 is not lacking hardware wise, with a full-sized keyboard for more accurate and comfortable typing, 2GB of DDR3 memory and up to a 250GB hard drive. As for the ultra-mobile Aspire One AO521 netbook, you get a HD 10.1-inch CrystalBrite LED backlit display, a 93%-sized keyboard, 1GB of DDR3 memory and up to a 250GB hard drive. This is a fingerprint magnet though, no thanks to its smooth, glossy exterior so make sure you have a cleaning cloth handy always.
