Default Anyone using a Dell Inspiron 11z netbook ?

Just wondered if anyone was using one and what they thought of it.
Read mixed reviews, but it ticks all the boxes of what I am after, so im in the process or ordering one.

Win7 with 2gb of ram should be enough for general use, right?

Bought one last week off eBay when they had a one day deal on and they'd given me a 20% off voucher as well
Got it to replace the antique laptop my wife uses, she seems over the moon with it
Seems fine for her interweb browsing needs. I'm not a big fan of the 'multi touch' mouse pad thing, it's a bit to hit and miss for me.

Just finalised my order.
Thought I had done it yesterday but something had not gone through properly.

On speaking to the guy he said my order was £359, not £379 as the prices went down £20 over night
AND...
They have added a free colour cover offer since yesterday too, which I also was given.

So 1 day late ordering, £55 better off

Reading the reviews for the multi touch mousepad, apparently its well worth spending 5-10 mins setting it up properly and it becomes much nicer. So they say.

Ahh I've not done that. To be honest the wife seems to get on with it ok, although she uses the 'one finger poke' method of control

lol @ the one finger poke.
If you feel the need to make it work better, try it. A few say its really good the way it works when set up
