I've just had it for a few days. Already fed up with it. No longer using it. Nah, it may be ultra portable... but, it's also ultra slow and mighty hot.
PROS:
small n light
CONS:
slooooooow
hot
windows & antivirus
conclusion:
waste of time buting a netbook. might as well get a decent compaq cq40 or cq20, free dos... and install ubuntu on it. yes cq series can install xp (i've done it) but, requires work, a lot of it. if you are unable to figure it out in the 1st place, netbook suits you. but, if you insist windows on cq20 or cq40, i'd strongly suggest you go for a genuine windows vista.
author is currently using:
C2D 2.2 compaq v3000 series laptop dual boot vista & ubuntu (for a year plus now)
AMDX2 3.0 self build desktop dual boot ubuntu & xp (less than a year upgrades)
p/s:
I've installed Windows XP for those CQ40 bought at RM1500 at Tesco. I'd say that those CQ40 are a steal! Great Bargain! Better get those than a netbook.
