Meh, this isnt that exciting of a toy to you guys but im pretty stoked. Ive been looking to get a smaller laptop solely for school/business(and obviously web browsing/aim/skype.) I started looking into smaller 14" notebooks and came across these new "Netbooks." I did a ton of research and went to best buy today to look at some to get an idea of how small they actually are(these things are tiny, 10", less than 3 lbs.) Well, after the trip to best buy, I am 100% sold on these. They are absolutely perfect for what I want. I ended up purchasing the Samsung NC10 as its getting some of the hottest reviews right now. Heres the specs, followed by some pictures from the newegg website.
