That would have been a much better purchase without the ATI X1250 IGP. From the tests I have see, the X1250 is terrible and about on par with the Intel GMA 950. MSI should have thrown something else in there especially for that price. Then that netbook would have been a must buy for many people as the AMD Neo processor is more powerful (yet not as power efficient) as even the N280 Atom processor.

Default size and price

Size and price are creeping up. Testing the market. Add an external CD/DVD drive and you have an underpowered, underfeatured Road Warrior's computer or a MacBook lookalike for the classroom. Higher resolution than a netbook though and a five hour battery.

Is this a good buy with added money for a Windows 7 license?

Who's making the under 10in netbook now?
