 NC10 January 6, 2009
I was a little bit skeptical at first because a lot of people told me that netbooks have rather poor performance and only very limited memory. However, after reviewing various different models (Asus Eee, Acer Aspire ONE, MacBook Air), I figured that the NC10 is the best choice. The MacBook may beat it performance wise but only has one USB port. the NC10 has 3 USB ports, none of the netbooks have disc drives though but that doesn't bother me.
I particularly like the amazing battery life of the NC10, up to 8 hours! Keeps me well entertained with movies on long haul flights. Also, the screen is very big for such a compact unit. Most netbooks, for some reason, don't have a screen that takes up all the space if could, resulting in a bulky looking plastic "frame" around a too small screen.
Performance-wise, I'm running MS Office 2007 enterprise on it (OS: XP, never again Vista). Additionally, I use Firefox and for my media needs, FrostWire and uTorrent, everything runs great as it did on my old laptop... until it pathetically died - twice.
Overall, I can recommend the NC10 to anyone who isn't a hardcore gamer. I've had it for two months now and not yet discovered any disadvantages to full-size computers except the non-present disc drive.
Oh, one last thing, I got it flat white which looks quite amazing with the blue lights of various status lights and the power button. It does get looks because of that and, naturally, its size.
Best 10-inch netbook out there January 6, 2009
Great battery life, upgradable memory, fantastic netbook keyboard (especially because the 'Ctrl' key is outside the 'Fn' key. Take that Lenovo). I bought it for my wife who is working on her dissertation, and she would rather work on this than our fast desktop with a 24" monitor. The blue finish is excellent, much nicer than the white one. I installed XP Pro and a 2GB stick of PC2-5300, but didn't notice too much improvement over the 1GB, so I wouldn't recommend it unless you need the placebo (I do!). Pair this with a bluetooth mouse and you are ready for anything.
NC 10 January 6, 2009
Love the NC 10. The day-to-day tasks are fast and and it behaves like a normal Windows XP machine. The main uses for this machine are internet, office,photoes when traveling and other such basic tasks.
The fit and finish are excellent. The screen is bright.
---------------
CONS
Trying to find faults in this machine is difficult but;
Screen size. Problem with the screen is that it is slightly too short in height. To combat this you may simply make the taskbar autohide, without this, the main window pane seemed pinched
Touch pad. The touch pad is very short (up and down) so some adjustments are needed to get it up and down without retreading over and over. I find it much easier to just use a mouse . I wish that Samsung had used the extra space above and below the touchpad to simply increase its size.
---------
PROS
Weight.Hard Drive.Battery.Speed.
Battery, I tested it out to run for 4h 30 min on my flight back from Argentina This was a huge selling point for me. Most other netbooks have similar features as the NC 10 but many lack the 6-cell battery.
Hard drive. The response time is fast. No noticible lag when accessing the hard drive or save large files. Having 160GB hard drive is important to me because of all my travel stuff.
----------
CUSTOMIZING IT
As with all laptops, this one comes preinstalled with a bunch of stuff you may or may not want.
Enjoy.
 almost perfect January 6, 2009
existing reviews outline almost all of what i could possibly say. it is an amazing machine for portable work. fast, convenient, chic, prestigious. it looks more expensive than it is. when i tell people how much i paid for this machine, there is nearly noone who is not dazzled.
one thing is the mouse pad. i would buy a portable wireless laser mouse to use with this machine. for long use, the mouse pad is annoying because of the size.
Great Product January 4, 2009

I had been in the market for a mini netbook for some time. I had tried the ASUS 7inch which was much too small and had a very awkward keyboard.
Later, I purchased a Everex StepNote from TigerDirect, off Lease. Fortunately at that time, I purchased a replaement warranty. When the computer crashed 3 months later, TigerDirect sent me a gift card for the amount of the purchase price of the Everex (499.99) and I turned right around and ordered this item from Amazon.
I can't really say anything bad about it. It is so quiet you don't even realize it is on. The keyboard and characters are all where they are supposed to be. I turned it on this morning and it's 5:56 pm and the "low battery" indicator just clicked on. I stays cool. Light weight and easy to carry, love the blue color. However, with the blue color, fingerprints abound. I'm also thinking of buying one for my mother.
The only thing I did was add MicroSoft Works 9 and a laser mouse, specifically, VX Nano Cordless Laser Mouse. You can pick it up here on Amazon as well.
