Acer's first Aspire One 522 netbook powered by AMD's low-power C-60 accelerated processing unit hit shelves in Europe. The Aspire One 522 was released in January, powered by other AMD APUs that aren't as power-efficient as the C-60. The AMD C-60 features two x86-64 cores clocked at 1.00 GHz, which can jump up to 1.33 GHz with TurboCore, and a Radeon HD 6290 graphics core that runs at 276 MHz, that can run at 400 MHz with TurboCore.

The Aspire One 522 is a 10.1-inch netbook with all the essentials you'd expect from a netbook from this category, plus the performance advantage AMD's APUs bring to the table over Intel Atom. Its LED-backlit screen features 1280 x 720 pixels resolution, the APU is backed by 1 GB of DDR3 memory, and storage is care of a 320 GB hard drive. Connectivity includes a web-cam, 10/100 Ethernet, WiFi b/g/n, Bluetooth 3.0, and a 5-in-1 card reader. Display connectivity includes D-Sub and HDMI. A 6-cell battery powers the machine. It comes with Windows 7 Starter pre-installed. The new Aspire One 522 is priced at €279.

true, but smartphones dont have screens this size. tablets do but they dont have the keyboard

the capabilities of different technologies are starting to blend but not necessarily all of the functions

IMO - if the Price is similar to a netbook running an E-350, I would go for that one instead.

AND Im not just saying because i already have one. but an E-350 has some serious benefits over the C-60

-More powerful GPU
-More Powerful CPU
-Supports more then 4Gb Ram
-Bigger screen resolution
-still small and very portable with most E-350 Ultraportables at around 11.6 compared to a original netbook at 10-10.1"

Only thing is it drinks more juice, but I doubt L4D is even playable on a C-50 or C-60 like it is on a E-350.

And yes - when i chose the E-350 I too was looking for more batterylife over raw performance

There's a 14 incher around sporting the C-30, they are so cheap. I mean, so so cheap. And I'm broke you know so i have no other choice really.

I wonder what the battery life will be and also how well it will work with linux, my one complaint is that it only has 3 USB ports, I would have liked to see 4 and 1 USB 3 port.

True, But ARM processors are more efficent than x86.

and these x86 CPUs contain a lot more transistors that get work done. ARM is great, but it's for low power only (as of now).

When windows 8 and android x86 are released maybe we'll have some head to head benchmarks of the fastest CPU from ARM and lowest from AMD. Something tells me the several watt AMD is going to smoke a .5 watt ARM lol


yeah little late may be too late? 'Atom' took over mankind!

Now, people are starting whine about their netbooks running slow lol. No, really? You bought the slowest x86 CPU on the planet and thought that two years later you could do anything on it?

Cost should help AMD on this, though. People are getting frugal.

Cheaper and lower power consumption I suppose.

if the E-350 is anything to go by, the E-450 will be a lot better then even Intels latest series of atom processors.

Makes sense I suppose.. probably direct competitor to those 10" atom.. while E450 is directed against the overpriced atom + ion netbooks

Its difficult to draw a line where these CPUs/APUs stand. I was gonna say Atom>E-350 but most put the E-350 around the SU7300 mark so yeah, I guess it does kind of make sense
