Acer Introduces Aspire One Happy 2, Hopes Netbooks Still Trendy

Acer is not giving up on the netbook as it introduces the Aspire One Happy 2 for the U.S. market. The netbook, which comes in bright Skittles-like colors, features dual-core Atom N570 CPU, 250GB hard drive, 1GB of RAM, WiFi, and a 10.1-inch screen.

It is strange to see that Acer is offering a “new” netbook using specs that are so two years ago and these would even be considered awful at that time. Even more strange is that the company is introducing an endangered product for $269. With that price, you could have bought yourself a pre-owned ultraportable notebook (or even the Acer AC700, if you add about $100) and save yourself from further embarrassment as other people sees you owning a netbook, even if it is spanking new.
