Here's the deal. The OD where I work is selling Acer Aspire Netbooks (AOA150-1570, Item #981450) regular price is $289. The manager is tired of having them and wants to get rid of them for 30% off making them $202 each. With shipping I can mail them to whomever wants for probably around $220 each. The specs are:

8.9 inch LCD
Intel Atom N270 1.6GHz
1GB PC2-4200
120GB hard drive
XP Home SP3
2.19lbs.

NO CD/DVD drive!

I can hold them for a day so let me know.

Damn, nice deal! If I didn't have a car payment and cellphone bill to pay next week I'd jump on this. I still might. O.O

I bought all 3 we had in stock. Total was just over $600. They are now secured, until I find them a new home

Although, I will probably keep one to load Windows 7

Alright, I bought all 3 we had, but one is corrupt. It boots to an error screen about LSASS.exe and reboots over and over. I put my XP Pro disk in and it does work and does allow me to wipe the drive and start over, but I don't want to deal with a fresh install, downloading drivers, SP3 and all the updates. The hard drive has a partition, that I'm sure contains all the drivers. If someone wants this Netbook I can still sell it to you. Hell, I'll even throw in the XP install and an SP3 disk. It'll be $220 shipped.

The other two are on ebay (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&Item=230327895831&Category=177)

PM sent to CS

Just WOW!:eek:

I listed the first two on ebay (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MESOX:IT&item=230327895831) and they sold for $350 each. I only paid $200 each!!

The third was having problems right out of the box. I just finished installing Windows XP Pro and a Full Copy of Microsoft Office 2007. It's listed (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230328469189) now too.

Actually, some guy in the Netherlands won one and still hasn't paid. I blocked foreign bidders, but that didn't seem to matter for him. Once ebay gives me back all my fees, I'll relist
