    It's not bad, but it has Linux and not Windows which is why it is so cheap. It's ok I guess, but if your familiar with Windows only, you may find it tricky to change other. Other than that, yes it is reasonably specced for that price.

    I don't trust ebay to tell me what a good 'deal' is...
    My TV is broken! :cry:
    Edit: refunded £515 for TV 1.5 years out of warranty - thank you Sale of Goods Act! :j

    I expect the price remains after 10am but the featured deal will be changed on the main page so that vendor is no longer featured .
    It is a netbook aspire one with 1gig of memory and linux ,looks like pink only.
