    Did you forget to include the price? In any case it all depends on how you plan to use it. You wouldn't want to run any graphics intensive games on it.

    A great, lightweight, notebook. I'm not sure why reviews ding it for lack of ability to play 3d games (some have done so). Would anyone really buy a 12" notebook to play Doom 3 or Splinter Cell? I'd be playing that on my desktop with my gaming capable graphics card and 19" LCD monitor, along with its faster processor and more memory. This little 12" laptop is super for what I wanted it for. A lightweight computer that I can do everything on except for advanced 3d games.

    Oh, and at an affordable price too. Doesn't get much better than that!

    Thanks Averatec.
