    Looks like a good deal, but I don't know much about it. Anyone have one?

    The A90 is a nice Netbook! A good alternative now that the Mini 9 has been phased out!

    A90 is pretty much a mini 9 in black. :)

    This is the deal that modders have been waiting for. It doesn't get much better than this for those looking to put in some creative legwork. :)
