    How do you think this one would handle HD video (720/1080p on an external screen) compared to the single-core models? I have one of the single-core 10" netbooks and it runs 80-90% cpu usage just playing back standard-def YouTube videos.

    I wish they'd up the RAM to at least 2gb at the same time.

    You need GPU acceleration to do 1080p fullscreen flash video.

    Even an overclocked 980X to 4.5ghz Hex core with HT strugles by itself doing full hidef flash fullscreen.

    The ION graphics are in the other N550 atom netbook .. in Asus 1015PN. I'm sure the Aspire one AOD255 will soon have a -???? version that has ION.AOD255-????
