My Son and His Acer Netbook

| March 24, 2010 | 6 Comments

My son Daniel has been begging me for a netbook computer for about as long as they’ve existed. Now that he is a little older we decided to surprise him for his birthday. Thanks to a recommendation from Notebooks.com Publisher Xavier Lanier, we picked out the Acer Aspire One AOD250-1842. It was going for about $300 from Amazon. It is not the latest and greatest that you can buy in a netbook, but getting a kid’s perspective is kind of interesting.

Daniel was pretty happy, as you can see in the video. He opened it up at his grandmother’s house on Saturday. After a few days with the Acer netbook, he gave us his impressions of his new toy on camera.

    Great to see your son's enjoying his birthday gift! Love his reaction- reminds me of me when I got my first computer.
    Your boy's very articulate and I look forward to hearing more from him. Sounds like you've got a geek in training :-)

  2. Thanks Xavier. He loved doing the video too. A bit of a ham like his dad.
