Buying Samsung NC10-14GB 10.2-Inch Blue Netbook - 6 Cell Battery


I love that I can take it anywhere. Love that it's pretty fast in loading. When I purchased the netbook, I also purchased an extra 1G of memory, but I haven't felt the need to install that yet. (I also read somewhere that when one installs other hardware, it invalidates Samsung's warranty.) I find that the keys and keyboard are big enough that I can type easily without my huge fingers making too many mistakes.

The one thing that took some getting used to, was what I had read from other reviews...that being the mousepad...but I think I have it down now. It is small, and one's finger can easily move on the right side, which is the scroll portion. I compensate by trying to be conscious of moving my right index finger ABOVE my left index finger, which is hovered over the left-function "button". (Of course, the problem then becomes that the "hovering" becomes an unintentional touching, and pages open that weren't intended!) Oh well...regardless, I still love this netbook!Get more detail about Samsung NC10-14GB 10.2-Inch Blue Netbook - 6 Cell Battery.

Overall a nice netbook. I also have a smaller Asus 900 series, I like the larger keyboard on the NC10, it makes typing much easier. The only complaint I have is that the touchpad is hard to locate without looking. It blends smoothly into the surface of the netbook, so if your finger is out of position by just a little, the pointer goes rogue. On the Asus, the touchpad is in a slight depression, making it easier to find in the dark or without looking. I know this sounds minor, but I am actually considering trading the NC10 in because of this. Finally, no Linux option. Its sad that I have no choice but to buy an 8 year old operating system (Windows XP) filled with security holes to get this piece of hardware. However, installing Linux on the NC10 is pretty easy to install (and free) if you are of that mind. I am downloading the just released Fedora 11 for mine as I type this.Get more detail about Samsung NC10-14GB 10.2-Inch Blue Netbook - 6 Cell Battery.

This little netbook is a very good computer. It runs fast for its size, and it is ultra portable. Excellent battery life. Obviously not for gaming, however this computer can easily run Microsoft Office. Overall Very satisfied.Get more detail about Samsung NC10-14GB 10.2-Inch Blue Netbook - 6 Cell Battery.
