A nippy little machine

I am a Mac-user, but have to use occasionally PCs and prefer XP, no -nonsense, stable etc...Got this little beauty for someone else, and everybody I met, including me, wanted it! It is occasionally faster in browsing the net than my very expensive apple laptop. As long as you do one complicated thing at the time (plus running not so CPU intensive activities in the background) it is fast. Very fast start up and shut down time, lovely screen, very bright and also mat, so you can use it in brightly lit places or outside! 4,5h of browsing while watching a movie on repeat with an external monitor.....very impressive! loads of HD space, a good sized keyboard (I had my problems, but that is normal with every keyboard you have to get used to it). Nothing on it feels cheap, I can really recommend this.....do not expect to watch HD on youtube without trouble, because flash is to complicated to run fast. You can watch HD once it is on your machine, no problem. I am not a fan of the glossy top, but put it in a (faux) leather case, very stylish. I chose this over the newer Samsungs, as I can not see any real improvement, and often the confusing models are just downgrades to make it cheaper (for samsung!), so this model is still on top of the netbook game, one of the best, go for it!
