Netbooks

One child, one laptop; it's not just my motto, it just seems difficult to implement this in schools. And I'd love to be a kid again these days, especially when browsing through Amazon and running into all of those netbooks. I'm in love. The only reason I haven't yet ordered one yet is because I can't choose... I do hope sales will go up, because Asus has had to increase the price for their netbook after not making the required sales targets last year. How sad. Perhaps schools should start purchasing them. 2 euros per week per parent and each child can have their laptops paid for in less than 3 years... How difficult can that be in most West-European countries? Just look at this cutie, the Acer Aspire One A110 AB Sapphire Netbook. It has a cool blue design and is very light at less than 1 kg, it has a built in web-cam and also has the latest Intel mobile technology with the low voltage Intel Atom processor. Dixon sells it for 170 pounds sterling - with the current rates, that would be about the same in euros :-) The specs are as follows: Intel Atom N270 processor, 8.9″ CrystalBrite TFT Display, 512 MB memory, 8GB Flash Hard Drive, Linux Lite operating system, Built-in 0.3 Megapixel camera, Built-in card-reader and Up to 3 hours battery life.
