Default Does anyone have a Samsung NC10 netbook?

If so is it any good? Web reviews seem pretty good, just want to make sure it isn't to slow with running XP. I need it for web and email on the move.

Cheers,

The spec (apart from the screen and battery) is basically the same as my Acer Aspire One. That has XP and Win7 on it and I have to say I'm surprised how fast it runs. Faster than the other halfs Dell Inspiron laptop.

Others have installed Vista, Mac OSX and various flavours of Linux with great success.

For web and email I very much doubt you'll be disappointed.

Loving mine, only use it for email, surtfing, YouTube etc. and perfect for that. Did try running Word etc. and that was fine also but not tested to extremes.

Cheers

Thanks guys, what colour did you go for? Would you change to another if given the choice? I'm torn between black and white. Black looks better but seems prone to scratches and finger prints, white has matt finish but looks a little cheaper to me and could be prone to get dirty.

Cheers,
