Samsung N110 12PBK 10 Inch Black Notebook

It's met my needs and also expectations for this type of lightweight laptop computer. I've noticed lots of people give below average testimonials to notebooks depending on their lack of an optical drive, tiny keyboards/track pads, or their poor performance with 3D gaming. To these people I only say - do some research and recognize that which you are ordering before you purchase it. It is a laptop folks, not a 15" laptop that has been magically shrunk to suit in a 10" covering. Just like things in life, some things had to be sacrificed so that you can accomplish this type of tiny computer. Processing power as well as track pad/keyboard size needed to be decreased in order to fit everything into this kind of tiny bundle and acquire extended battery run times.

I make use of the netbook computer to give PowerPoint presentations. Despite the fact that the actual resolution of the netbook display is 1024 x 600, the resolution is much better on external monitors and projectors. So far I was able to use the maximum quality capabilities of the projectors I have used. The actual presentations are just as sharp and clear using this laptop as when using high-powered costly laptop computers. With the actual long battery life, I don't bother using a power cord and looking for the right adapter for the type of power plug the actual country uses. I can give PowerPoint presentations for 8 hours without connecting my notebbok to external power.

The N110 has handled everything I've thrown at it, but I am not throwing heavy duty computionational tasks like simulations, video decoding or graphic intensive games, nor do I ever expect to on this machine. I am currently running it with the actual standard 1 gb memory, and although I ordered a memory upgrade at the same time as the actual N110, I haven't seen a need for the extra memory, yet. On the negative side, if you are planning on using this machine often outdoors in bright light, you will most likely be unsatisfied using this type of device. Otherwise, I think laptop magazine got it correct: this can be a near perfect laptop.
