Maxintosh Posted September 6, 2008 Share Posted September 6, 2008 It has a nice fit and finish, but it would be painful to buy a Dell. Wish Apple would come out with a mini laptop already. Maybe Sept 9th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Detosx Posted September 6, 2008 Share Posted September 6, 2008 The GMA950 graphics chips is so fantastically out of date. It seems that all of these new Atom sub-laptops are using it, so I assume it eats less energy than the GMA x3100. Even so, 'mouth watering' isn't exactly a phrase that springs to mind when I see GMA950. Re the Dell, why combine silver and black, it looks so cheap. Anyone know the battery life on this one (using Linux)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moarfish Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 Everythings perfect except the SSD drive which makes it not a good hackbook choice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Standard HD's probably eat too much power for the little guy to handle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Netbooks are designed for simple web browsing and editing documents, not for 3D gaming and other intensive applications that would need anything beyond basic graphics. Why can't people understand that not every machine is designed for gaming? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
