Overview of the Acer Aspire Timeline 1810T |
 |
The history of modern computing has always been a story of trying to strike the correct balance between size and power. In the current generation of technology the conflict most keenly shows up in the division between so called full power notebooks and highly compact little netbooks. The former generally support greater functionality, while the latter allow for an unprecedented ease of travel. Then there are machines like Acer's Aspire Timeline 1810T, which show that the distinctions between the two categories can be entirely imaginary. |

For a start, the Timeline is designed to be easily carried. Slim, only three pounds in weight, and lacking any strange extruding design features, it will fit with ease in all but the most miniscule travel bags. An eleven inch display gives excellent all-angle viewing, and the keyboard is almost full-sized at 92%. All this amounts to a highly portable, user-friendly notebook that doesn't punish the user for seeking a compact package. The Aspire Timeline 1810T functions solidly on a technical level as well. The 1.3-GHz Intel Pentium processor performs above netbook industry average, and the generous 320GB hard drive is welcome indeed. Perhaps the most impressive element of the unit is the six-cell battery. In standardized testing conducted by LaptopMag, it provided over eight and a half hours of usable battery life. While this will vary with the number of functions being performed, it is still an excellent benchmark to work from compared to the average netbook. In addition, it uses very little energy to recharge, making it a nice alternative for the green-minded user. In short, the 1810T is a very strong performer in the world of ultraportable computing. It has good processing capabilities and extensive battery life and a useful HDMI output port. In short, the 1810T is ideal for people who need all day laptop battery life and portability. Prices range at $550 in the U.S and as low as £340 in the UK.
