DIY Acer Aspire One gets transformed into UMPC
Alpheus | Oct 3 2008

An Acer Aspire One netbook finds itself transformed into a UMPC. This bloke takes his netbook, screws the keyboard out, and fuses the bottom half of the device to the top half. His Aspire One also gets a cool 8.9-inch touchscreen. The modified UMPC retains the original configuration, viz. the 1.6GHz Intel Atom, 1.5GB memory, 8GB SSD and Ubuntu OS. Quite evidently, the flipping around of the lower half makes it a lot easier to use the cam and the touch display.

Watch This: It is one of the rare occasions when a netbook gets modified into a UMPC. From a result perspective, the effort is certainly laudable. Acer might want to consider launching a UMPC with the Aspire One core now.
