A few more options in this model, apparently, but I hope this one ships without the stupid French-English Keyboard that made me return mine. I can't believe manufacturers are so cheap, they won't bother to ship one for English speaking Canadians (80%).]]>Sep 16th 2009 6:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/16/packard-bell-debuts-dot-m-u-netbook-with-the-performance-of-a-n/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/16/packard-bell-debuts-dot-m-u-netbook-with-the-performance-of-a-n/Sep 16th 2009 8:42AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/16/packard-bell-debuts-dot-m-u-netbook-with-the-performance-of-a-n/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/16/packard-bell-debuts-dot-m-u-netbook-with-the-performance-of-a-n/Sep 16th 2009 3:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/16/packard-bell-debuts-dot-m-u-netbook-with-the-performance-of-a-n/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/16/packard-bell-debuts-dot-m-u-netbook-with-the-performance-of-a-n/Sep 16th 2009 4:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/16/packard-bell-debuts-dot-m-u-netbook-with-the-performance-of-a-n/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/16/packard-bell-debuts-dot-m-u-netbook-with-the-performance-of-a-n/Sep 16th 2009 6:20AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/16/packard-bell-debuts-dot-m-u-netbook-with-the-performance-of-a-n/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/16/packard-bell-debuts-dot-m-u-netbook-with-the-performance-of-a-n/Sep 16th 2009 6:41AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/16/packard-bell-debuts-dot-m-u-netbook-with-the-performance-of-a-n/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/16/packard-bell-debuts-dot-m-u-netbook-with-the-performance-of-a-n/
And I realize that I should know Spanish by now, living in the United States and all...

This is completely stupid. We're rebranding small laptops of 4-5 years ago in to performance netbooks, and people go crazy for them.

I purchased a PB dot m/u CH/355 in Switzerland 2 weeks ago. The model has 4Go RAM and 500Gb hard drive. So far i'm really happy with it, the battery holds really long (can't really give an exact feedback on autonomy) and the screen is very good. I use it as an extra traveling laptop so it's not my main machine
The funny thing is that i have not been able to find anything about this machine on the net yet, although i bought it from a high-street electronics shop, Mediamarkt (build date says 19/08/2009, so i must have bought barely 3 weeks after it was built)

One more funny thing that you can maybe help with= the machine comes with the free upgrade from Vista Home premium to Windows 7, but can you tell me how i will be able to upgrade the machine when i receive the upgrade CD/DVD, as there's no optical drive on the machine (and i see none available as option)... ? crack the cd, save it on a hard drive transfer it to the laptop's HD and try to launch it with some kind of "ghost" player/program? I'm not highly skilled in IT, but have medium knowledge...

How is the noise-emission? Is the ventilator always on?
