waste

lmaooooo 4gb hard disk. :D Oohh but it's so pretty.. Perfect for a grandparent!


BTW my boyfriend has an ASUS laptop. It's the ASUS w3j he got back in high school.

Dude, definitely not. It's for a target market. These things are selling like hot cakes. They have a version of Linux on them that has been specifically designed to be easy to use. I hear it's incredible. I think it's perfect for kids to learn and use in school or college. It may be crap for you, but I would love to buy one for my sisters. Open Office is great.



The only reason they have a 4GB disk drive is because Solid State Drives are the fastest and most dependable drives on the market. A 4GB Solid State Drive would cost roughly $100 . Also, you can always increase the amount space by using an SD card or or using a flash drive.

ASUS has been coming out with great products recently. Especially their gaming laptops.

For $400, can't complain. Especially with a built in webcam and it's pretty portable.

Oh wow, a 32GB solid state drive is $399. :O

old

Dude Josh, Michelle's got one.

hmm, thats like a sidekick or iphone in a better deal. lol but thats not badd...


or you can get the OLPC and you get 2 of them FOR 399 and one goes to a poor child in another country ! plus you can get free tmobile hotspot for a year ! but im pretty sure you already knew that. lol

Yes, it's old news that they exist, but they just recently went on sale (and that is new news).



Does she like it, I was thinking about getting one for my sisters.



You could get the OLPC, but they aren't as powerful. I guess the benefit of now that you helped that innocent child in another country is nice. Also, I didn't know that actually. I knew about OLPC(it isn't new), but I had no idea what the benefits were. ;]

i wanted those a while ago, but i was iffy about it. it was like $700-$900 back then. $400 for that is pretty decent.

i've always held back on buying laptops 'cause i really want an asus, but i'm always broke when i find the ones i want ;X.

Well what type of computer are you looking for, I'll help you out. What do you want to do with your computer. ;]

I guess just buy a portable USB hardrive.

lol i keep getting mixed up with acer. cause acers look like that also. oops ~

I feel as if since this is a relatively small sytem, my fingers would be all cramped up.

does anyone have one of these? they are the smallest laptops ever..

Off-topic: I've never heard of this before, but when I typed it in Google, more than 10 search results came up. What the hell?

Do you have one of these? I personally prefer big screen laptops, but these look pretty cute.

no, i think im getting one for xmas, but I really want a macbook =X
