I bought the Samsung NC10 last week and so far it has been a neat little machine. Inspect the machine very closly. I had to return the first one because of damage to the hinge. It was hard to see but I think someone broke it and returned it as new. It also had marks where the battery slides in, but it was packed up really well. The second machine was perfect, nothing wrong and a great color.
I downloaded office and some other software for editing photos and so far everything has worked fine. Playing a DVD as we all know is not possiable without downloading a decoder as I found out. I bought the External LG slim DVD rewriter and installed the associated software. DVD's work just fine now.
One of the issues I'm running into is finding a wireless support network. I have no idea which is the best for coverage and speed.
The other issue is the machine does seem to produce some good heat where you place the hands when typing.
I also cant seem to adjust the screen resolution to higher then 1020x600.
Im still awaiting the 2G upgrade and will install that along with the 320 external hard drive for photos and movies.
All in all its worth the money, but make sure a netbook is what you need and want. If you need a full size laptop dont get this, you'll be disappointed. Fortunitly my home computer is grossly over sized in memeory and options so what i cant do on this I just move the file.
Four stars only because of the first bad machine. Who ever returned it the first time, "Shame on You" this should have been a five star review.Get more detail about
