I”m a classroom teacher and I wanted to try it out in my class.
My students love it. It’s just their size. The games on it are great and it has the word processing that I want my students to be able to do.
I love this little computer. I use it for internet and using MS Office. It does all of that perfectly with XP Home. I have zero issues with speed and connectivity is great. I especially appreciate the battery life - I get (without any power saving features enabled) about 3 hours of real world use. I bought a cheap external USB DVD drive to ease loading software. I have no trouble networking it with two Win 7 computers on my home network.
Got this for the lady wife. She has been more than happy. She sits on the couch and IMs her sister and her daughter, updates her blogs and generally has a good time with it. Seems a trifle slow, but then it IS a netbook.

This great little machine has replaced my desktop PC. It’s easy to plug in my desktop monitor, wireless keyboard & mouse, and speakers. Being rural, I use my cell phone for internet access so I can unplug from home and be on the road in seconds.
I bought this to have something on the go that can last a long time and it does that. I did have problems trying to get online, but function F1 fixed that right up for me. Besides that getting used to the smaller keyboard takes all of an hour or so. As for the speed, its quick enough. Just wondering if upgrading the speed will be worth it on this little guy. Long story short, it looks good, the case is nice and it came quick. Thanks.
