      5.0 out of 5 stars A great improvement
      Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 November 2009

      I bought an Acer Aspire One just over a year ago to take with me on trips to England and to use in the house when I didn't want to fire up my desktop machine. The version I got runs Linpus Lite (Linux)and came with a three cell battery and 513Mb of RAM. It is easy to use and perfectly adequate for surfing the net. I even managed to edit photographs with it using Gimp software and upload them using Linux FTP software.

      Then I decided to buy a Vodafone USB dongle to connect to the Internet whilst in England and that is where I started to struggle. I know that there is software available to work with Linux but I couldn't get it to run. I also struggled to find a way to network the Acer with my Windows Vista desktop, so I decided to buy a Window XP netbook for myself and give the Linux version to my wife.

      I'd read quite a lot about the NC10 and knew someone who'd bought one. It seemed like the best choice available on the market at present.

      Having bought one, I am happy to say that the reviews I read were all correct. The keyboard is the best I have used on any laptop; it has just the right amount of feel and travel. The screen is bright, clear and sharp as a pin and the battery life in comparison with the 3 cell Acer is fantastic.

      Best of all though, all the software I am familiar with runs on the Samsung without a hitch including Canon's Digital Photo Professional which normally won't even install on netbooks because it requires a screen with a minimum resolution of 1024 x 768. Rather cleverly, Samsung have included a program called Easy Resolution Manager on their netbook which allows you to switch between 1024 x 600 and 1024 x 768.

      With regards to the purchase process, I have bought a lot of stuff from Amazon recently some of which has been delivered directly to Spain and other items to my daughter in England. This was the first expensive item to come to Spain and was shipped by courier rather than post. I'm pleased to say that the service was fast and trouble free. In fact, I'd hardly finished my morning cuppa when the delivery man arrived at my doorstep. Full marks to Amazon for service and to Samsung for producing such a good netbook.

      1.0 out of 5 stars NOT HAPPY AT ALL
      Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 31 July 2014

      This netbook was sold to me 'as new' , whilst I like the net book, unfortunately it has the 7601 fraudulent copy of windows installed on it, whilst I can bypass this for 3 x 30 day periods, the white screen fault is now constant and is making the netbook virtually unusable. I have contacted Tech 24/7 on many occasions and the seller has offered no advice re overcoming this problem, no information re the history of this computer, and replies to my emails are very brief, ie 'no other customer has ever had this problem', 'you are outside your months warranty', 'what do you expect ,me to do about it' ....and lately when I asked for information re the seller's IT background, no reply at all.

      I am not a teckie person at all, but when something is described as 'like new' I did not think I would be handing over alot of money for a computer I cannot use, especially on Amazon. Please be warned when dealing with this seller, I like the netbook, but have found the seller no help whatsoever, just constantly fobbing me off, and, even more worryingly appears to have no IT knowledge at all.

      Any advice re how to proceed and or how to overcome this problem would be most welcome.

      4.0 out of 5 stars Great - but no wifi!
      Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 29 April 2009
      Verified Purchase
      I've had my new NC10 for a week. The first one was replaced by Amazon after 3 days as I couldn't connect wirelessly to the internet - even after the helpful people at Samsung talked me through various operations. I'm still delighted with the replacement.

      However, this replacement NC10 also wouldn't give me a wifi connection to the internet. It connected to my router both through the wired LAN and wirelessly through the WLAN, but only the wired connection gave me the internet. I just couldn't believe I had been unlucky enough to get the only 2 faulty machines in existence, so I spoke to Samsung again, and I now gather this WLAN problem is 'an unresolved issue'. They have promised to get back to me when there is an official resolution.

      Meanwhile, not being the sort to just sit here wringing my hands, I had a trawl through various forums, and one of the suggested solutions worked for me. The NC10 uses as its wifi card an Atheros AR5007EG device. The Atheros WLAN card came with driver version 7.6.1.160 already installed. Samsung support had previously suggested I upgrade this to driver version 7.6.210 by installing the Atheros Client Utility and driver 7.6.210. but it made no difference to my problem either the first time or on this replacement.

      The suggested solution from a couple of internet forums was to download and instal an older driver. I downloaded the Atheros driver, version 5.3.0.56. Made a back-up of my NC10, then uninstalled the 7.6.210 driver and the Atheros Client Utility program, re-booted the NC10, and pointed the 'found new hardware' wizard to the downloaded driver 5.3.0.56. Don't even think about doing this if you haven't understood any of it, but if installing devices and drivers holds no fears for you, it might be worth a try if you have the same problem. The Atheros card gets renamed to AR5006X when the older driver is installed.

      This worked for me, and I've had a good wifi experience for the last 3 days using the wifi connection to surf the internet.

      The NC10 itself is a brilliant little machine, and very usable with a nearly full sized keyboard. The screen being only 10.2 inches does mean that images and text are much smaller than you may be used to - but its only to be expected. Sound is clear - I have used Skype with no problems.

      When you first use the NC10, you are asked to decide on the size of the second or backup partition. As I like to keep my data separate from my programs, I chose 105GB for this drive.

      All in all for £300 this is an excellent lightweight little machine and it would get 10 out of 10 if it weren't for the wifi problem I experienced.

      excellent product but it did blow up on me whilst i was using it abroad - and where i was (japan) had no support for it. I returned it to amazon and they promptly sent a replacement which since then has had no problems.
