Acer D250 Dual Boot Windows/Android Netbook [Acer D250 Android Touting Netbook Release Set for November]

Tweet

If you’re waiting for the release of the Acer D250 dual boot netbook, which will come pre-loaded with both Windows XP and Android operating systems word on the street is that the D250 is set to drop sometime in November, though no specific dates have been mentioned.

Sporting the Android OS and coming with Windows XP also loaded, as Acer are somewhat concerned as to how well Android on a netbook will be received by consumers, the D250 will allow you to boot to either OS via a boot dialogue menu (no, you don’t get separate buttons allowing you to power up the OS of your choice, though arguably this would have been a rather better implementation) whilst, in terms of general specifications, the device is seemingly incomparable with the standard Win only D250 – so you’re looking at a 10” display, Atom CPU and other standard netbook offerings (doubtless you know it as well as we do by now).

There’s no official word concerning the dual OS Acer D250 as at the time of writing but initial hands on reports suggest that Acer have been pretty savvy in offering Windows XP alongside the Android OS, as its implementation of Android is, at best, gaining moot feedback.
