Acer takes top spot in netbook sales

December 10, 2008 – 8:31 pm – No Comment

Acer and its Aspire One has overtaken Asus’s EeePC as the top selling netbook in the world. Asus started the trend when it first released its mini notebook the EeePC last year. The third quarter 2008 is the first time that Asus has been overtaken in sales.

The Acer Aspire One was first released in July 2008 and from what I can see it is being sold at more locations that the Eee PC. Where I live, there are two locations that sell the Acer and none that sell the Asus.

HP is also a fast gainer in the market. HP has released the Mini-Note, one of the only netbooks to carry Vista as an operating system option.
