Seriously, I mean I can understand paying for quality but 2k is a lot of money for something that is severely underpowered!]]>Jul 4th 2009 7:34AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/04/keepin-it-real-fake-part-ccxix-gemstas-vaino-knock-off/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/04/keepin-it-real-fake-part-ccxix-gemstas-vaino-knock-off/
I would never even consider buying that Sony POS, I don't care how good the build is, it's not worth the $1,900 premium over the cost of the components. They're idiots.

This little thing is pretty sweet at that price however.

Really though, I'm waiting for ion 2 before the netbook game really is worth dropping a dime on.. and I'm waiting for calpella to get out their, hopefully lowering the prices of all the FSB-laden CPUs.

One can hope.]]>Jul 4th 2009 8:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/04/keepin-it-real-fake-part-ccxix-gemstas-vaino-knock-off/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/04/keepin-it-real-fake-part-ccxix-gemstas-vaino-knock-off/Jul 4th 2009 10:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/04/keepin-it-real-fake-part-ccxix-gemstas-vaino-knock-off/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/04/keepin-it-real-fake-part-ccxix-gemstas-vaino-knock-off/Jul 4th 2009 1:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/04/keepin-it-real-fake-part-ccxix-gemstas-vaino-knock-off/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/04/keepin-it-real-fake-part-ccxix-gemstas-vaino-knock-off/Jul 4th 2009 7:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/04/keepin-it-real-fake-part-ccxix-gemstas-vaino-knock-off/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/04/keepin-it-real-fake-part-ccxix-gemstas-vaino-knock-off/Jul 4th 2009 10:06AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/04/keepin-it-real-fake-part-ccxix-gemstas-vaino-knock-off/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/04/keepin-it-real-fake-part-ccxix-gemstas-vaino-knock-off/Jul 4th 2009 10:18AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/04/keepin-it-real-fake-part-ccxix-gemstas-vaino-knock-off/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/04/keepin-it-real-fake-part-ccxix-gemstas-vaino-knock-off/Jul 4th 2009 10:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/04/keepin-it-real-fake-part-ccxix-gemstas-vaino-knock-off/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/04/keepin-it-real-fake-part-ccxix-gemstas-vaino-knock-off/Jul 4th 2009 10:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/04/keepin-it-real-fake-part-ccxix-gemstas-vaino-knock-off/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/04/keepin-it-real-fake-part-ccxix-gemstas-vaino-knock-off/Jul 4th 2009 10:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/04/keepin-it-real-fake-part-ccxix-gemstas-vaino-knock-off/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/04/keepin-it-real-fake-part-ccxix-gemstas-vaino-knock-off/
On another note, this actually has a touchpad so it's easier to type on it since there's something to rest your wrists on.]]>Jul 4th 2009 11:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/04/keepin-it-real-fake-part-ccxix-gemstas-vaino-knock-off/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/04/keepin-it-real-fake-part-ccxix-gemstas-vaino-knock-off/.>

Regardless, the only netbooks worth buying are the Nvidia "ion" based systems.
