Acer Aspire One for £135

[Dos_Box]

I've just come off the phone to Richard at Acer Outlet and he's let me know that they are due a shipment of Acer Aspire Ones (Acer Aspire One A150-Ab Netbook LU.S050A.074 - Aspire One Netbook - Acer Outlet) with Linux on board. Windows drivers available from the Acer site of course

These will cost £135 each and this price extends to you as individuals wanting to purchase one for yourself too

Please let us know here if you, or your school would be intersted in this offer, and we will let you know when they have landed.

Might just be tempted on one of those for me:) But will also tell my boss.

Abit to chunky for me i have my eye on the eeepc seashell

[Dos_Box]

Hmmm. £368 vs £135 for a 'throw in the bag' travel laptop. I know which one I'm buying!

[FN-GM]

[EduTech]

[Little-Miss]

With or without VAT? Delivery? How many in a shipment?!

[srochford]

Me please!

 

If I were into conspiracy theories, I'd suggest that this is deliberately placed in the week that many people will get paid but I'm not a conspiracist (?) so I won't :-)

These will cost £135 each and this price extends to you as individuals wanting to purchase one for yourself too

 

Yes, I'd be interested in one of those for myself, although like everyone else I'll need to know if that £135 is including VAT, shipping, and VAT on shipping (sorry, used to dealing with Dell...).

Also, as regards this other thread about SIM cards: can we get a machine capable of using a pay-as-you-go SIM card internally to connect to a mobile broadband service, or do we have to use a USB dongle. If we have to use a USB dongle, which ones work with Linux on this laptop?

Now £159.99 inc.VAT £139.12 ex.VAT

 

Thats the price on the edugeek acer outlet, so i gather we have it at a reduced price £135.00 Excl VAT so with VAT it works out to £155.25 which is still a fantastic price!

Ignore the price on the Outlet site. We haven't updated it yet, as they have not arrived (in a container on a ship etc). We are just getting a feeling as to how this offer would go down.

£135 incl vat and del gets my vote

Would be very interested if it's £135 all in

[CyberDrac]

Could be interested, would be more interested on the version with internal 3G, but interested nonetheless.

[Midnight]

£135 a bargain. I'm in.

[My220x]

Deffo interested.

[mrforgetful]

Passed info on.

[dhicks]

We are just getting a feeling as to how this offer would go down.

 

And we are just trying to figure out what, exactly, the offer includes. Is £135 the final price that individual buyers would pay, or is there VAT, shipping, and/or VAT on shipping to add on top?

 

Can we get a machine capable of using a pay-as-you-go SIM card internally to connect to a mobile broadband service, or do we have to use a USB dongle. If we have to use a USB dongle, which ones work with Linux on this laptop?

I shall find out for you ASAP.

[Gonk]

I'm up for one

[SYNACK]

If only I was in the UK I would so buy one of those, that model is not even avalible yet in NZ and to get the model before it here would cost an extra £97. Are you sure that you can't do international shipping?
