It's powered by a second-generation, low-voltage Intel Core i5 dual-core processor. This Series 9 laptop features one super-speed USB 3.0 port--the latest development in USB data transfer technology. Perfect for transferring and retrieving large files between your PC and an external hard drive or digital camera, USB 3.0 offers the speediest, most efficient way get what you need from external devices. (It also has a standard USB 2.0 port, plus USB 3.0 is backward compatible.)

Note: This Samsung laptop does not include an integrated optical disc drive, but you can connect an optional CD/DVD drive via one of its USB ports.
A Display that's Twice as Bright
Form meets function in the Series 9 display screen. It's twice as bright as a standard screen, has an unmatched viewing angle at 170 degrees, and features SuperBright Plus display HD+ technology that transforms your viewing experience with 400-nit brightness so you see brilliant color and images even when viewing in direct sunlight. And with HD+, you can fit more of what you really want on your screen and do less scrolling.
Set Your Laptop to Stun
While striking to look at, the Series 9 laptop also sets a premium performance standard. With startup speeds and an extremely fast resume from sleep, you'll get even more done and it leaves every other PC in the airport lounge or conference room behind.

Solid State Drive to Start Even Faster
The Series 9 features a 128 GB solid state drive (SSD) that offers plenty of storage. And, with no moving parts, your data is more secure. It boots up 60 percent faster than a hard disk drive (HDD) and you'll use less power with faster data access. Fast Start Technology saves your data and system configurations to your hard drive and PC memory, so in an instant you can power back on right where you left off. Connectivity without Compromise
The power of networking is important, but with the new Series 9 it's all about connections. The Series 9 is equipped with a full line of ports for ultimate connectivity--even a full size, masterfully designed SD card slot. And to keep you plugged into what's next, it also features mini Ethernet, HDMI and VGA connectors that are ready and set to go with an adapter dongle. Longer Battery Life and Life Span
The Series 9 delivers mobility and freedom with its power efficient performance and extensive battery life of up to 9 hours on this 13-inch model. Its advanced lithium-polymer battery and Samsung's innovation PowerPlus charging technology make the battery lifespan last up to three times longer than the typical notebook battery so you can keep going, without worrying how much battery life is left. Your Favorite Content on the Big Screen
Stop crowding around a laptop screen and enjoy all of your personal and online content on your big screen by wirelessly connecting your laptop to your TV. With Intel Wireless Display (WiDi), you can sit back and experience your favorite videos, photos, movies, online TV shows, and more--all with great image clarity up to 1080p.
Simply connect an optional adapter for Intel Wireless Display (such as the Netgear Push2TV PTV2000 and Belkin ScreenCast adapters) to your TV, follow a few simple steps, and you're off and running. Set it up once, and sharing your screen is as easy as pushing a button.

This review is from: Acer Aspire One AOD270-1824 10.1-Inch Netbook (Espresso Black) (Personal Computers) This is a great machine once you upgrade the memory to 2GB. Its small size and low weight makes it easy to carry in my purse or backpack.
Out of the box, 1GB is installed and loading each and every screen took so long that I had time to polish my nails as I waited for the screens to load. After upgrading the memory, it works well and the screen loads are within acceptable norms. In addition, the machine was pre-installed with Microsoft Windows 7 Starter. At first, I was upset and wanted to return the machine. But after reading the reviews online, I was convinced to at least give it a try. I is just fine for this machine. I did have to uninstall Microsoft Office Starter because it is such a waste of effort. Were it not for the name and basic interface (MS Office) you would not know it was a Microsoft product. I removed it and installed the full version of Microsoft Office 2010 to avoid the learning curve and to get all the features and functions I am accustomed to.
I highly recommend this machine one you upgrade to 2GB of RAM. My only regret . . . that the manufacturer did not automatically ship this machine with 2GB of memory because the chip was only $13 and that the path to upgrading the memory was so elusive. I had to wade through 9 YOUTUBE videos before I found one that was appropriate for my machine (it's the Asian video with no words, just the song . . . "When will I see you again").
