User Review:
It is very portable with good price and colorful, good resolution. It boots fast and easily. I using it by integrating with my regular laptop (networking, documents). It utilizes popular application (Webmail, Google docs, iGoogle). Connects to wireless fairly easily, as well as printers and network You can install Windows XP (they give you a manual), but you need buy your own software (I haven’t tried this). Good selection of software (yes, it looks like open source, but that’s not a bad thing, it keeps the price low)–Open Office, etc.
I thought the manufacturer did a decent job with making this Linux operating system feel like Windows, so the learning curve is almost nonexistent. I bought this for writing because of its portability, so I didn’t need the most expensive model and I don’t care about using Windows since this is a secondary computer. I’m glad to see manufacturers are bringing back portability with functionality (i.e., pda’s don’t suit all productivity, especially for writers) Overall I am happy with it, and glad I waited a bit for this $299 model to come out.
