You read it right folks, that’s $289.99 for one of the best netbooks ever released, get it while supply lasts only at Woot.com. It’s even better than the Eee PC 900A deal which was offered by Best Buy last month with an 8GB SSD (Best Buy’s offer for the Eee PC 900A has a 4GB SSD only).

Basically, you get the following specs:

• 1.6Ghz Atom CPU,
• 8GB SSD,
• 512MB,
• Webcam,
• 802.11b/g,
• Linux,
• OpenOffice

Yeah, I know it would have been a better deal if Windows XP was the OS. But hey, you wouldn’t get that for such a cheap price if not for the Linux OS right?

Anyway, let’s cut the chaste and I advise to make haste, those Acer Aspire One units would sell like hotcakes. And it’s the closes thing you could ever get, before the $200 Eee PC gets released next year.
