    Im trying to gasp on the memory specs I keep reading different types:
    The specs below are from two different vendors. Are the specs the same
    or are they different?

    Vendor-1
    ONBOARD DDR2 1GB 533FSB
    ( SODIMM slot for upgradable to Max 1.5GB Using SODIMM Module )

    Vendor-2
    Memory 1GB
    Memory Spec 512MB onboard/512MB SODIMM slot

    It seems that Vendor-1 is just one 1g memory built in.

    thanks

    Heres what I found out
    There are indeed different memory setups for the Acer one.
    There is such a thing as a one 1 GB DDR2 setup which can be advertised as 1GB. You can also advertise the Acer One as having 1 GB but with one 512 built in and one 512 slot.
    The one 1 GB DDR2 is the better setup.

    Unless something's changed, they're the same. Vendor-2 is giving you a clearer description. You can replace the 512MB SODIMM with a 1GB SODIMM. The SODIMM slot is "onboard"

    I agree, Vendor-1 is not saying much could be like Vendor-2 or the new Vendor-3, see below:

    Something might have changed...I see another description for the memory making this Vendor-3
    Vendor-3 describes the memory as 1 GB 1024 MB DDR2 (PC2-4200) RAM 533Mhz
    Here I would guess the SODIMM slot is empty, where you can go out and buy 512MB to get 1.5g

    All three vendors:
    Vendor-1
    ONBOARD DDR2 1GB 533FSB
    ( SODIMM slot for upgradable to Max 1.5GB Using SODIMM Module )

    Vendor-2
    Memory 1GB
    Memory Spec 512MB onboard/512MB SODIMM slot

    Vendor-3
    Memory 1GB
    1024 MB DDR2 (PC2-4200) RAM 533Mhz

    Scanning the specs on e-bay Im seeing Vendor-3 mostly on the White model
