Windows 7 memory full!!!!

It depends on what you want to do with it... usage wise.

Sadly its only got a single core CPU and 1GB. I have a similiar (single core Atom) spec. Samsung Netbook and I use it a heck of lot, mainly browsing (Google Chrome Browser works a lot faster than Internet Explorer) and actually it does quite a bit of other stuff.

I do recall it being painfully slow at first and putting 2GB made a massive difference. Once you find what type you need I would take a punt on a cheap 2nd hand memory model (you will need a 2GB one to replace the 1GB fitted already) off Ebay or Amazon market. Just look for a seller with good feedback. I think mine was £8.

If that doesn't do it then sell it and move up.


EDIT

I just saw its a Mini 10 1018 - these are a right pain to upgrade, back has to come off, keyboard, hard drive, palm rests all have to come off. Unless you feel confident in dismantling it perhaps it would be best to get rid of it... its never going to run Win 7 well on a single core with only 1GB.

How about replacing Win 7 with a Linux OS?

Yep I'd get rid of it, if anyone will buy it! ;-)

good luck. Mine makes a nice doorstop. Useful to have when the wife throws a glass of wine on the main laptop. Again.
