    I have a copy of the 64 bit version of Win7. Will it work on the Aspire One? If I could avoid downloading the 32-bit image (my connection is not so fast).

    As far as I know, the AA1's Atom N270 chip doesnt support 64bit code. In short' you're going to need a 32bit installer.

    No, the Atom CPU does not support x86_x64 (aka 64-bit).
