nosushi4you Posted January 7, 2010 Author Share Posted January 7, 2010 The Dell website says they are no longer selling the Mini 9 or Vostro a90. But you say the Mini 10v works?

Would any of these new laptops be better than the rest for video conversion? How about also for hooking up to an external LCD projector? Thanks.

That huge thread about HP mini 311 ought to answer that question.. it has the ion or 9400m nvidia card in it.. it is the cadallic of netbooks.. other than that my suggestion is the 14z from dell if cpu power is a biggie and internal dvd drives are not.. but get it from the outlet at dell.. it only cost $100 more than a brand new mini 311 that way.. although a refurb 311 could run you $280 which is an unbelievable deal in all respects.

Just about everything works with the 311 except for WiFi (which can be fixed with a Dell 1510 for $28). This is one of my most recommended OSX86 netbooks out there. Convinced 7/9 people I know with one to switch. It was easy to convince them though, as they are already Mac users.
