TechGadgets.in is reporting that the price for the Acer Aspire One sub-notebook is being cut to $329 USD (for the Linux version) in the states. This is the price before sales tax or VAT. at the moment the Aspire One seems to be retailing for about €299 here in Finland and if one adds VAT to the new price of the Aspire One it comes to about €272, so not a large cut in the end, but it still places the Aspire One at a very attractive price point (IF we see a similar price cut here in Europe).
And here’s my math, if anyone’s interested:
329 USD = 222.86 EUR [1 USD = 0.677 EUR]
222.86 * 1.22 = 271.54 EUR [22% is the VAT here in Finland]
