hi
thanks to all those who have helped with this.
yesterday i was offered a Samsung n120 in a straight swap for my spare n86
mobile phone.
as of yet the seller has not given me any information of the said netbook
other than the make and model so i have no idea on the Samsung n120 full
specifications.
if anyone on here knows of the Samsung n120 and what the full specifications
are could they let me know.
and of course advice on a straight swap would be appreciated.
is this a good idea or not?
thank you
Yvonne

I do not have a NetBook, but I thinkk you would be much happier with a
NetBook with 2 GB. It should be much more responsive! Microsoft prohibits
PC Makers from selling (perhaps they can just not advertise or provide such
an offer) that has more than 1 GB! However, most stores and sources
provide an upgrade, and most can install it for you. It is a worthwhile
upgrade in my opinion.

real substance, value, and content that I just try to make sure that I am
working on things that matter.

hi
thanks for this.
if anyone can think of anything else that would be useful on one of these
that would be appreciated.

and of course decent sound for skype and voicemail.
most i have found so far only have 1 gig of ram when purchased.
and all so far only have a 1.66 gig hard drive
and what is windows 7 like?

RAM (at least 2048MB will do), wireless support, memory card reader,
hard drive space, and of course a fast processor (at least 1,7GHZ).
I think it is just a matter of seeing that the processor and RAM would
help you with screen reader support and be a multitasking system. Most
netbooks come preloaded with Windows 7 nowadays, but you can also get
some with Windows Vista or XP. Vendors often state which operating
system is loaded.

hello
i pose these questions now.
suppose i decide to get one what would i be looking for in one of
these.
for example Bluetooth is one a 3 in 1 card reader is another and a fast
processor would be another but what else would i expect one of these to
have to make it worth buying.
as much info as possible would make it easier for me to choose one.
thank you

Hello there;
you would need to use a USB cd/dvd.
