Acer Aspire 1551 11.6" Notebook Review @ HotHardware.com

news · November 18, 2010

Hello Everyone,

As we have pointed out before, netbooks aren't what they used to be. These

days, you're more likely to see a new netbook emerging with a near-$500

retail price than one with a near-$200 price point. We're partially blaming

tablets. There are a number of sub-$300 tablets on the market and on the

horizon (the $188 CherryPad comes to mind!), and that has allowed netbooks

to up their position in the market place. Climbing up the ladder, so to

speak. But this upward mobility has also allowed netbook makers to broaden

their scope when it comes to internal configurations. With more latitude in

pricing, you're seeing more interesting builds and configuration options.

Acer's 1551-5448 is a great example of this...
