Recommend me a decent affordable netbook!?
« on: June 03, 2009, 05:53:15 PM »
Ahoy lads,

Want to get a netbook for the missus, any suggestions?  Looking at teh Samsung NC10, but I'm thinking it might be getting a bit dated...what with that nvidia Ion thing around the corner.  I don't want to either end up with a platform that's way behind the norm (in a couple of months time) or pay way over the odds for same.

What do ye reckon would be a good buy?

ta,

Luc

Well the new Inspirons are pretty nice.  The girls have XPS 1530's, same case etc as the standard models.  They are not that heavy and really nice to use, built in webcam etc.  Have a look at one of those maybe?  Also check out the Dell Outlet for bargains.

All nice lil machines there, especially like that Acer Aspire 6530G, lots for your monies there.

I forgot to mention the budget, can't spend more than 300 sterlings atm, so limited that way.
