What software needed for NC10?
Comments

Not bad, but not quite the replacement for a NC10.
Strange to ask "How much did you pay?" only to list a different machine.
Not really, just giving an idea of a similar model, by the same manufacturer. As you say below, it is called choice !
They have the NC10 3 Cell version on their Returns site for £208
They didn't sell it to keep the price down. Some people may be happier paying less if they don't need a 7 hour battery life. It's called choice.
So surely that is to keep the price down, and give people the choice ?
Of course you can choose a feature and whether to pay for it - and it shouldn't be any other way !!0 -

Yoy can also say that Samsung manufactured the N130 to "keep the price down". The version to which you link to has no Bluetooth, a 0.3 MP webcam and mono speakers.
Strange that you would link to an inferior machine to illustrate that "prices were coming down"
Never mind. It's not a problem.

You are absolutely right ! It is also a fair point on the specs, but I did say I wasn't sure of the difference ...
Still, surely no different to opting between 3- and 6-cell batteries, as features you may not want or wish to pay for :money:
I for one would have jumped at the model for £70 less than I paid for my NC10, if I had seen it at the time. I didn't really need a good webcam (never use it) ditto for the Bluetooth, and if I listen to music, I use headphones or external speakers anyway (although you are now going to tell me that the whole audio system is mono, and I am being too lazy to check before I type this
)
So - you pays your money and takes your choice then :beer:0 -

I win....I bought a Netbook that I don't use at all. :rotfl: I unpack it, update it and then put it away again.
I think I'll just sell the thing.0 -
Have to buy a bigger estate if I actually wish to unpack all of the goods I have purchased. Not sure if that's funny or not.:o0
