TIA!

tsk tsk i don't think its allowed to share ones product key. its piracy the sticker at the bottom of your lappy is the product key for your operating system. un-install your AVG and perhaps you should try avast its free as well

[aiden]

^sabi nga commercial ng mac, PCs are not out-of-the-box. You have to uninstall the trial programs then install.

I am torn between a Lenovo idea pad S10 and an MSI Wind.  Please help me decide.   

Acer Aspire One sana for almost the same specs as the Lenovo except that the screen of Acer is smaller. 

[sarahsensible]

^halos pareha ng itsura yung 2 ah

Quote from the forum:
"This compares directly with the MSI Wind. I prefer the Wind's beveled shell, but the S10 has more features for lower cost. The unspoken question will be, what is the S10's battery life vs the Wind's?"

Yung 399$ ng Lenovo nasa 512mb lang, then $450 ang 1Gb..with MSI default nya is 1Gb

But again, Lenovo is Lenovo! Known sila for making very durable laptops like thinkpad. And para maiba naman diba.

well..HP mini note pa rin vote ko  diba p3t3r

[p3t3r]

^sarahsensible

ha ha ha yep agree.

^^bad_boy

no problem

[flexusob]

Here are the specs of the Lenovo I am eyeing:

Intel Atom N270 1.6 GHz
10.2" WSVGA (1024x600) LED Panel
Intel® GMA 950 Graphics Card
160GB SATA HD
Lenovo 802.11bg with wireless switch (wifi)
1.3 megapixel integrated camera WebCam
Fast Ethernet 10/100
2 x USB 2.0, 1 x external VGA, 4-in-1 Card Reader, 1 x ExpressCardâ„¢ /34
3 Cell Lithium-lon
Bluetooth
Genuine Windows® XP Home Edition
Dimensions: 250.2mm x 183mm x 22-27.5mm
1.25kg. including battery

And this is the review I saw:

Obvious ba I am not partial to HP Mini Note although it really looks good and also has nice specs.  Maybe it's because of the smaller screen. Does the HP have bluetooth? 

Thanks for all the advise and suggestions.  Keep 'em coming!   

[sarahsensible]

^so what do you think sis? pasado ba sayo?

[flexusob]

^ Malapit lapit na akong bumigay.  Hehe!  As you said, Lenovo is Lenovo.  But we have an MSI laptop that has served (and still serving) us well kaya impressed din ako with MSI.  While I am deciding, I am also hoping the prices of netbooks will still go down.

There's a review of the HP mini note that says the screen is very reflective.  Bothersome ba?

[p3t3r]

^flexusob

MSI is ok except that for its specs (MSI Wind) parang masyado siya mahal.

[flexusob]

^ Yeah, that's why I am still hoping it will still go down.  Another option is to wait for the computer conventions and hope that they will add freebies/bargains to the netbooks they are selling.  While waiting though, I'm keeping tabs on the reviews for both Lenovo and MSI. 

[sarahsensible]

^by the time you are decided, bagsak presyo na yan sis. Kadalasan ganyan nangyayari sken eh
