Oh sure, you just HAD to post this! I resolved not to spend any more
money on useless gadgets and now your link puts this RIGHT IN MY FACE.

Just kidding about the caps, sorry.

By the way, can you post a link where I can buy one? Please? I want
one NOW.

Have you bought a PC yet -- you had a 630m, sold it to your
brother-in-law. Are you doing without or have you bought something to
replace it?

It all depends on what you're going to use it for and what your expectations
are.

Notice the small screen for starters (7inch). Notice the lack of a hard
drive aparrently, using flash memory for a substitute, thus very limited
storage.

Note the processor is apt to be at the low end of the scale with respect to
speed.

Note the memory may only be 512meg along with it being shared with the video
card.

So, .........

It's probably fine for internet browsing, E-Mail and perhaps some
lightweight office apps, but that may be just what you're looking for,
especially with such a small screen.
