I 'ummed and erred' for ages before comitting to buy this item. Our 'big' PC has been on the way out for months and we wanted a replacement. We really only use the thing for on-line surfing, music and our digital camera. After some research we decided that a netbook would just about cover our needs and as we are on a strict budget, a proper laptop was out of the question. In the end we plumped for this netbook based on reviews on here and elsewhere.
So far thsi little machine has loaded up very quickly, we have transfered all our music and photos quickly and easily. I managed to set up a wireless home network with our other PC in minutes. The unit is light and super compact and means we will no longer have to have a huge corner of our fornt room devoted to the computer needs of our family, wich is a real boon.
IN short this little book does everything we want it to do, is neat and sturdy and I cannot so far find fault. If anything there is a bit of 'bloatware' (unnessecary programs) installed, but these took minutes to remove easily.
If you are after plain simple and highly mobile computing for basic needs, this has to be the most cost effective way of doing it. Highly reccomended.
