The processor on any netbook, including all of the netbooks in Dell's line, wouldn't hold a candle to the Core2Duo or Celeron chip in this machine. The Dell Minis may be sexier, but their processors are weak. They're so slow they're inappropriate for business; no road warrior would want one. This machine, on the other hand, would serve as a desktop replacement. Sure, you *could* get a sexier laptop that's intended for children and the elderly, but something tells me that's not who Dell is aiming at with this one. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Himay]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 30th 2009 9:48AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dell's 12.1-inch Vostro 1220 gets official in Japan, packs few surprises]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/dells-12-1-inch-vostro-1220-gets-official-in-japan-packs-few-s/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/dells-12-1-inch-vostro-1220-gets-official-in-japan-packs-few-s/</guid><description><![CDATA[And this laptop is better then a netbook for a road warrior how? CPU? I'm sure they need the extra CPU power for...what do they need it for? The Atom can multi task fairly well for road warrior needs. Mozilla/Office/Music. The only argument you can make is that the netbooks dont have a media drive. Even then you can just put everything on a flash drive. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[tehslax]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 30th 2009 10:32AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dell's 12.1-inch Vostro 1220 gets official in Japan, packs few surprises]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/dells-12-1-inch-vostro-1220-gets-official-in-japan-packs-few-s/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/dells-12-1-inch-vostro-1220-gets-official-in-japan-packs-few-s/</guid><description><![CDATA[Seems to be lacking ram to be honest]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[GingerFox]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 30th 2009 9:53AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dell's 12.1-inch Vostro 1220 gets official in Japan, packs few surprises]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/dells-12-1-inch-vostro-1220-gets-official-in-japan-packs-few-s/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/dells-12-1-inch-vostro-1220-gets-official-in-japan-packs-few-s/</guid><description><![CDATA[Is that a 4:3 screen?
