8GB Kingston USB memory stick with Ubuntu 9.04 pre-loaded.
For the Acer Aspire One Netbook PC.


  Preloaded with Ubuntu 9.04 - this 8GB USB stick turns your One into a much more   versatile PC!
  If you don't like the Linpus software that comes on the Acer Aspire One, then this is the   item for you. Linpus might be good for newbies & uber geeks, but if you're somewhere in   between...urgh.
  Just insert our 8GB USB stick into the USB port, Press F12 at Bootup and select   Kingston  USB as the boot device. Then marvel as the One loads up Ubuntu!

  This build of Ubuntu includes:

  •Open Office (a complete Microsoft Office compatible suite)
  •Firefox Internet browser version 3 (play BBC iPlayer and YouTube video content)
  •Network Manager (now manages Wired, WiFi & 3G Mobile Broadband USB Modems)
  •VLC Media Player (for watching Divx & xVid movies)
  •Easily switch between Standard Desktop and the Netbook Remix Desktop
  •Skype (with working webcam & built-in audio)

All hardware is correctly configured: WiFi Works, Ethernet Works,   Webcam   Works, On-Board Sound Works, Shutdown Works   Correctly.  

Just insert our stick and press F12 - couldn't be simpler. (If you   were   wondering why we don't supply this build on an SD card -   which  would be   a   snugger fit - it's because the One won't boot from   an SD,  only USB).   We  also supply simple instructions for copying   the  Ubuntu build to the   built  in SSD Drive (overwriting the   pre installed  Linpus, should you wish).

This build of Ubuntu is the complete full install, it's not just a USB   'Live '   version - which has to uncompress itself at startup.

All the latest patches have been downloaded and applied. If there's a  tested   tweak for Ubuntu on the One, then it's on this memory  stick!

Ubuntu 9.04 natively supports 3G Mobile Broadband USB Modems

3G Mobile Broadband ready. ( Mobile 3G support is much improved in Ubuntu 8.10 )



Why spend hours trying to set this up yourself? Buy our ready-made solution and save yourself hours of frustration!

Just to be clear - this item is a USB memory dongle, and not an Acer Aspire One. (someone always asks). It slots into a spare USB socket on the Aspire One. The One can then boot from it, as if it were a hard drive.

The Dongle is brand-new in retail packaging with manufacturers warranty - we only open them to load the software.

All memory sticks are tried in our own One before being posted. If you get bored of Ubuntu you can always reformat the stick.
Kingston DataTraveler memory sticks come with a manufacturers 5 year warranty and are very reliable.

Price includes VAT, receipt provided. 1st class insured UK post & packing is £3.50. Item is shipped from the UK. We post as soon as we receive your payment. We can ship to Europe, North America and Australia for £9.95, insured.

Still not sure? You can read our instructions before you buy the stick.
We provide a simple method to clone the USB stick onto the internal drive (SSD and hard drive versions).
