Hi Jason.
well this isn't sounding so cheerful in general. i'd be interested to know
how to check specs more generally. The model I find myself looking at now is
the samsung n140, which comes with 270 ghz speed and either windows xp or
windows 7 (though i'd go for xp), and boasts good sound quality, ---- though
after all the comments on list I'm seriously considdering waiting for solid
state harddrives to develope further (as I said, there's nothing actually
wrong with my laptop other than lack of drive space).
Has anyone got any thoughts?
Beware the grue!
Dark.

Netbooks have to have seriously capped memory and processor speeds to meet
Microsoft's discounted XP licensing. I'd hesitate to use them for gaming
unless you're sure the new netbook is faster than your current laptop. One
thing that's often overlooked is the front side bus speed. Everything
might
look the same on paper initially between netbooks, but you could be in for
a
real surprise if you don't do a lot of research.
Newer netbooks come with a very stripped down version of Windows 7. I'd go
for that over XP.
Cheers!
Jason
