Excellent little machine for the price. I don't do much heavy lifting with it, mostly just screwing around on the internet and communications (Skype, IRC, etc). Came with Win7 Home Premium, so it truly is a little full-blown computer. The main reason I was sold on it is the ease of replacing and/or upgrading parts. Replacement batteries only run about $25-30. All batteries DO eventually crap out! (This is why I shy away from anything with built-in, non-replaceable batteries). Upgraded to 4GB Corsair DDR3 and a 90GB SSD. Windows Experience Index (after RAM and SSD upgrades) ----------------------------------------------------- Processor: 3.3 Memory: 5.2 Graphics: 4.0 Gaming graphics: 5.5 Primary hard disk: 7.4 No problem playing back HD content on Youtube. Haven't tried Netflix yet, but I'll assume it works fine if you have Silverlight 5 installed. (Supports hardware acceleration). The initial flood of Windows updates was painful, I'll admit. But that goes for pretty much any machine. This is where a more beefier CPU would come in handy. But other than that, no complaints. In short, I'd have to say this is one of the best netbooks out there. And since netbooks are unfortunately on their way out in favor of *shudder* touchy-pokey-swipey tablets, this machine is somewhat last of it's kind.Read full review
