Should have released this earlier when they promised. Probably get an S12 just because of their lies about the release date. Epic fail. Should have released this earlier when they promised.

This won't play HD with an N280 and 1GB, not unless you like watching HD in slow motion with unsynchronized audio! Won't run Win7's XP compatibility mode either. No HW virtualization support. You can buy a real laptop for $600. Go look at EMachines, Gateway and HP have some nice low-enders coming out for back to school too. Steeeeer Cleeear of this at $600. I'd consider it for $300-$350. Even at that it's a stretch. $600 you’ve gotta be kidding – right? This won’t play HD with an N280 and 1GB, not unless you like watching HD in slow motion with unsynchronized audio!

The screen size isn't the only thing that determines what makes a personal computer a netbook. Which is why you have both 11" netbooks and laptops. However, as technology progresses, netbooks in the over 10" market will disappear into laptops. But for now, its technically a netbook. Laptop = 15"-18" Ultra-Portable = 11"-14" Netbook = 7"-12" (Future = 7"-10") Ultra-Mobile = up to 7" It’s a netbook.

Laptop = 15″-18″
Ultra-Portable = 11″-14″
Netbook = 7″-12″ (Future = 7″-10″)
Ultra-Mobile = up to 7″

I have a 13.3" Dell XPS m1330... That's a notebook. If I drop one inch off of it, so it's 12" ... still a notebook. If I essentially chop it in half, that's a netbook. Give me this in a 9", or even better yet, a 7" form factor, and with an atom 330, and I'll be first in line to buy two! Progress, but once you go past the 10″ mark, it’s not a netbook anymore.
