    Meh, not my sort of thing, but then what will you be using a pc for? It really is a laptop in a case with no monitor, don't expect it to be amazing or fast.

    BTW, I have a 7' eee pc for work, does just what i need at work and fits in my pocket, but is unsuitable as an everyday laptop as its 2 small and slow.

    It's way too expensive. Given the price I'd prefer to get an eeepc or msi wind and just hook them up to an external monitor. Yeah, it would work out to be more expensive but then you have a laptop aswell.

    It could have its uses esp if you already have an existing lcd monitor. I preferably would use this at home for my internet radio needs since noise is way too low, and it consume less watts... but my Dell Pda already does this stuff at zero noise, so i have no need of it.

    ..i was thinking of giving this as a christmas present to my woman, but dropping a few hundred euros would already give me the choice for a better laptop which i believe she would prefer :p
