Sorry, but your problem not is the Laptop, your problem is your Router...

Product:  Acer Aspire 4810TZ-4011 Timeline 14.0-Inch Laptop
Posted on Nov 2, 2009 2:28 pm
From what I have read on these timeline series, updating your Graphics Driver and LAN driver might fix the problem with the CPU usage spiking during idle. If the unit runs slow when its unplugged but it runs fine when plugged in, its probably some kind of power save utility or setting, set to slow down when unplugged to save battery life.

Thankyou for the +Like, Hawkee :) Ever thought about investing in a netbook?

Product Review:  This netbook is more trouble than it is worth

Teach them to be more careful, jeez! I'm a teenager with a netbook and it's surviving beautifully! I agree with the post above pretty much completely. Wireless cutting out is 99% of the time a failure on the router's end, not the reciever. For its size, im not suprised it's "tightly constructed" to be entirely honest.

You are apparently computer challenged as the procedure to enter safe mode is the same on all windows XP systems. Holding down the F8 key while posting will bring up the windows options menu and all you have to do is select start in safe mode. This has not changed in years. As for the virus have you heard of Norton Anti-virus (duh!) I am not sure what you expected, the whole purpose of a netbook is light weight and a small footprint, this means plastic. And by the way, after raising 4 kids I can assure you that nothing is teenager proof.

So I finally got my hands on this thing and all I gotta say is Wow! The screen is simply amazing it's so crisp and bright. It's quite snappy and all around a spectacular notebook. I've even got XP installed through VMWare Fusion so I can run mIRC again after all these years.

I'd like to start by building an app for Hawkee. Maybe something similar to the Facebook app where you can check your friends' activities and notices. It really depends on how much time it will cost me though and what other projects I have in front of it.

That post makes a good case for building apps that have long term value, so that really supports my idea to do a Hawkee app.

Just ordered myself one of these. Can't wait to get it and start building some iPhone apps.

Nice, you have any ideas for apps yet?

I just found this on Gizmodo and thought it was interesting: The Life of an iPhone App: Nasty, Brutish and Short

It's well worth it, and I don't think I could live with any other computer. I made the switch 4 years ago and I've got no plans to go back whatsoever. Also, never had a problem getting applications that do exactly what I want. OS X is a very well supported operating system.

$500 off on this at TigerDirect, pretty good deal. (The Amazon listing is TigerDirect as well)

Really tempted to get one of these. I've got a 17" Powerbook G4 that's getting a tad slow right now, so a core 2 duo would do me good.
