    Yes. In my opinion it's one of the best currently available.
  • I bought one in December, for about £300, and its worth it even at that price!!! Whilst many people say its not good as a main computer.... it is mine! I used it for uni, and now that I am a bum again I mainly use it to browse the internet (searching for jobs of course!;)).

    Great laptop, great battery life, good sized keyboard! Its just greatness!

    I got one a couple of weeks ago for £285.

    'tis good stuff.
  • It's a great price but only buy if you want a netbook and not a notebook. Sounds a silly thing to say but if you are looking for what most non-business types want and that is a laptop that you can use all round the house, then these don't really give bangs for your buck. But, as a netbook, this is a very well reviewed one and this price is excellent.

    I've just received a promo email from ebuyer for this.... if they are email-dropping about these, the stocks might not last long....
  • this is a great machine, we got one in march and it is far superior my daughters acer aspire one running windows. The battery lasts for ever i think about 6 hours compared to less than 2 on the acer. I prefer this to the £450.00 toshiba laptop i have, couldn't recommend it higher.

    I've bought one and then another quite recently. These machines are simply fantastic for the price.

    According to an advert in The Times yesterday, Staples are selling them for £199 if you aslo buy Norton 360 for £29.35

    That would be great offer! The NC10 for £228.35, including Norton 360 which I'd sell on eBay. It's not on the Staples website though.
