Spec Sheet of the Model we purchased

  • Intel® Atom Processor® N270 (1.6GHz/533Mhz FSB/512K cache)
  • 2.28lbs
  • Width: 9.13" Height 1.07" front / 1.25" back Depth: 6.77"
  • Windows XP Home Edition
  • 1GB Ram
  • 16GB Solid State Hard Drive
  • 802.11g Wireless
  • 4 Cell battery
  • Glossy Black Finish

The Good

Portable and Lightweight high quality and great looking fast boot times with SSD hard drive. Very quiet overall

Some Drawbacks

Screen can be small for some computing task such as large spreadsheets and pictures, keyboard arrangement can take some getting used to.

 

Overall a great companion device for quick access to e-mail, web, chat, blogging etc.  Don’t expect this at all to be your main device for mobile computing if  you are a heavy power user.  As these get more power and more features like the recently announced Dell Inspiron Mini 12 these netbooks will become the next big way in mobile computer and possible take a chunk of of the standard notebook market.
