    Hi guys,

    I'm looking to get this netbook as a handy portable. One of the main reasons for buying it would be Skype. I don't like the idea of using an external microphone so was curious if the Ferrari One 200 has one fitted? I have used a Dell Mini 10 and it has a built-in mic and it's very handy.

    Also, for people who have bought this laptop new, does it come with an operating system re-installation CD?

    Thanks,
    Richard

    Hi, yes I can confirm the Ferrari One has a built-in mic. (I have Skype setup on mine). It doesn't come with a re-install DVD, you will need an external DVD drive and two blank DVDs to make a backup. Hope that helps - any other questions fire away :)

    That's brilliant mate, thanks for the reply. I have an external drive but I heard it comes loaded with bloatware so I'd like to do a clean install when I get it. It's not a problem anyway, I can get my hands on a Win 7 CD in the office.

    I'll probably wait until the new year before I buy it, so if I'm unsure of anything else, I'll be on to you with questions! :)

    Thanks again.
