so i have really loved my product so far but i have had an issue where sometimes it just locks up with no real reasoning. when i say no real reasoning i mean that i am maybe open on firefox with one tab open. it will just freeze up and the only fix will be to restart my system. has this been happening to anyone else? this is the reasoning for three stars, otherwise i like it.

This laptop started freezeing on my 2 day of using it.
right not I can not use it at all. I will try to fix it, but it seems like it has serious system defect.
I would be more than pleased to get my money back
and return this product, but it is hard to beleive that Amazon will do that . My advice to all :
Never ever buy anything online !!!

I haven’t even tried to set up the computer yet because I wanted to place in the extra 2GB memory card. But, in spite of using ALL sizes and kinds of screwdrivers, although the screw will finally turn, the small memory compartment will NOT open. It is STUCK SHUT. . . even with the screw partway loosened. I’m giving this 3 stars because of this. . . the memory is IMPOSSIBLE to upgrade since the compartment cannot be opened. If I wasn’t giving it the benefit of the doubt that the computer itself will WORK, it would be a ZERO.

I’m going to take it to Best Buy and hope that they will be nice enough to open the compartment for me. This shouldn’t be so hard just to easily and quickly pop that compartment open.

Too terrible that Apple doesn’t have a computer as small as this (the MacBook Air is still too large). Anything “PC” is already a dinosaur in my opinion, but I’m stuck with it now. Wish I had just plotted to take my MacBookPro on our trip. Wouldn’t have had to buy a separate DVD drive. The small notebooks don’t have firewire either. So far, I’m not satisfied. If you have a Mac, take your Mac and don’t bother with this nonsense.

this is a fantastic netbook. my first netbook ever but there are a few flaws. the battery DOES NOT stay up to 10. 5 hours. my friend bought this same one and both of our batteries only last about 1. 5 hours. also its a fingerprint magnet. . otherwise this is a fantastic netbook.
