I was given an Acer Aspire One AOA150. It originally came with Windows XP. I have Windows 7 on it now but its a little on the slow side. The hardware isn't the fastest, Intel atom Processor and 1.5 GB of RAM. I have no use for it and will likely give it away. Right now it is using my TechNet keys for the OS so I need to redo it. The original COA sticker is unreadable so there is no putting XP back on, not easily anyway. XP is unsupported anyway. I was thinking Linux might be the way to go but I have absolutely no experience with that OS. Or maybe Android if its doable. I'm just looking for something that is easy to install via USB, as it doesn't have an optical drive. And the least amount of fiddling to get all the hardware working. If detailed specs are needed I'll post what I can find out. Thanks.
