Hi Richard,

Interesting ..... it is getting closer ... :-)

Even with the "poor" specification, it is better than many "older" desktop PC's.

So, a sub-£100 notebook is still a way off, as yet.

No, it isn't. PC Pro might not have featured one, but Elonex launched the Elonex One in February; shipments are happening now - a £99 "notebook".

It is a rubbish device, with 128MB RAM, 1GB storage, 800 x 480 non- touch 7" LCD (a small trackball is on the rear of it) and a 300MHz MIPS-clone CPU, running an antique Linux kernel, but it is a sub £100 notebook.

The Eee is under £150 ex VAT now.

Acer's Aspire comes in 8GB, 120GB and 160GB versions.

Richard
