As a second laptop, would this little computer, work with my quickbooks pro, word/excel, acrobat, internet & mail?

Is it (best)possible to upload my quickbooks accounting to the AAO and then save all the files on my External HD.

These are my requirements, I am looking for something transportable.

I have a AA1 4gig SSD version. The SSD is slow with XP, OK with SLAX Linux. I installed FLASHFIRE to buffer data written to the SSD , i think it works well. I am happy with it.

I have two residences, with flat screen monitor and keyboard at each. I transport the Acer One in the side pocket of my carry on, or in a tote bag.
My only serious complaint is that there are no screw holes for the external monitor plug and it seems a trifle more shallow than usual. If I bump the computer, the monitor ofter becomes disconnected. After re-connecting it, I have to open the Acer, right click the desktop and direct output to the monitor again.
Has anyone found a way to make the connection to the monitor more secure?

I am so glad I found you… I have the aspire one in red, by acer the 11.6″ and I want to buy a 6 cell battery for it. I am unsure where to get it. My model is the 1259 I am also interested in getting a dvd player to attach to it . I bought a dvd writer which works for cds but for some reason it won’t play dvds. Iam thinking it’s because its a writer?? I am going to have to return it.

i have the 160g. it’s rocking office 07, quick books 06, sony acid, sony movie, adobe CS3 photoshop, soundbooth, lightroom, and premiere. no problems. speed is fine. only downside is i cannot run Adode illustrator due to the screen set up. just a heads up for all you artist out there. is there a way around this issue so i can run illustraor? would be nice. still for the price and travel action, it rules! i use this on the go and do all major art/video/music on my beast at the house. not ditching it because of one program. it would just be nice to make small adjustments on the road if i had too. no biggie if not.

thanks,
kevin

WinDVD comes with some codecs that Windows Media Player can also use. You know Microsoft would never pay for a software license they didn’t have to. Plus you can attach an external USB DVD player.

My wife is an accountant and runs Quickbooks Pro, Firefox, and Thunderbird at the same time. She takes the little Aspire to client sites.
