... Update:
I have used this netbook for less than 2 months & it no longer works. A replacement was shipped to me via UPS overnight. I am very happy!
---------------------------------------------------------

I am very satisfied with this netbook. I use it for browsing the web, and for my online course activities. It is lightweight enough that when I pack it up to take along with me, I don't feel weighted down.

It is important to note that it uses flash memory instead of a hard drive. The flash drive has 16 GB of storage. If that does not suit your needs, you will not want this computer. For me, it's just perfect. I don't plan on saving a lot of files on the computer, other than the papers I am writing.

For me, durability is a MUST. I have to admit, this little netbook has taken more than its share of mishaps. My three year old finds it absolutely irresistible, and sometimes manages to get her hands on it. Once she dropped it (to the floor) when I entered the room. Another time, she sat on it. The computer kept on working just fine.

It is very simple to use, right out of the box! It is great for students, casual internet users, and travelers. It is *not* meant for gamers who need much higher speed and greater memory.

I would give it 5 stars if the battery life was a bit longer. I have to plug it in after about 2 1/2 - 3 hours of use. ...
