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


I noticed with other netbooks, the lower evaluations were running 10% of total, but with the Samsung they were running at 5%. That tranlates to 50% less complaints for Samsung than their competition! Mine worked right out of the gate. Everything about it looks and feels quality built. Installing Windows was automatic. The keyboard is 7% smaller than a typical notebook keyboard, but I didn't have any problems typing. The position of all the keys is very logical, so getting used to the keyboard is almost second nature. The actual color is a shade or two darker pink than what you see here. I think it looks prettier in person. There is a single slot for memory and the maximum memory the computer supports is 2 gig, so if you plan to upgrade the memory from one to two gig, make sure you buy a 2 gig memory card. Surprisingly, the hard drive is also upgradable and can easily be swapped out for one with more capacity. It uses a straight SATA notebook drive. However, upgrading the hard drive means opening up the case and that voids the warranty, so you may wish to wait out the first year. Samsung now provides a slightly larger netbook that comes with a full size keyboard, but it also weighs a bit more. Plus, the color selection is limited (no pink yet). My daughter insisted on pink. Actually, I have no complaints. I'm very pleased with my purchase.Get more detail about Samsung NC10-14GB 10.2-Inch Blue Netbook - 6 Cell Battery.

For me this is not only a traveling machine but -given its good performance and big enough keyboard- it is my office computer as well. That is mainly possible because the small screen is not a problem at all provided the computer is connected to an external monitor through its VGA output (tip: even nicer if you use it in the "extended desktop" mode).

But here is the completely unnecessary bug: the VGA output does not have the two holes for screwing the VGA cable. You still can connect it, but then the VGA cable (that is usually heavy and stiff) stays loosely connected, providing frequently a poor image - something you have to correct frequently by adjusting the cable manually (what certainly will also end up shortening the life of the VGA output).

This daily annoyance is what makes me give only 3 stars for a product that, otherwise, would be a five stars for me.Get more detail about Samsung NC10-14GB 10.2-Inch Blue Netbook - 6 Cell Battery.
