Looking at buying one of these Netbooks - SAMSUNG NC10 or the Toshiba NB200, any advice which one is the better option would be appreciated.

SAMSUNG NC10 @ £215.94 (inc using £10 off code)

Toshiba NB200 @ £187.35 (after £50 cash back)

Thanks

    I'm in love with mine as well :iloveyou:

    Just make sure that NC10 has the 6 cell battery and not the dreaded 3 :eek:

    That is if you decide on it of course.............

    You can't beat an NC10 with a 6 cell battery.

    Yes the Samsung & the Toshiba in the original post come with the 6 cell battery, seen good reviews about the Samsung so I think it will be better to go for the Samsung than the Toshiba. Also some people have had problems with the Toshiba cash back offer.

    Here's a very positive review of the Toshiba...

    And an interesting variation in prices from Laptops Direct (but some people have had problems with this firm, i should add...)

    Definitely the Samsung NC10:cool: (although I'd go the extra mile and opt for the N510: stunning build quality and what a keyboard! :cool2:)
