One less now available , gonna bung Win7 on it and have a play.
Good call there Dylan.In a similarly related vein me and Stubbs both clocked these bargains from Ebuyer...Acer Aspire One A150 Intel Atom N270 1.6 GHz, 1GB RAM 120GB HDD,8.9" Webcam, Blue, Linux Linpus Lite...at the bargain price of £149.98.
Vista wasn't developed with Netbooks in mind, Win7 was. I know people already running Win7 on Dell Mini9s etc. I did say 'have a play', if it's slow/crap/frustrating it's back to LinBunXPtu.
Not dissimilar from mine then?A2 quality, but I can't tell that mine's even been used at all!

I ummed and ahhed for a few hours and have just bought one if only to punt it on at a profit on fleabay or similar (two listed there one at £149 the other at £199, should be able to get more than £149 for it I reckon).
Will probably remove Linpus and install Ubuntu and can help others do the same.
Let me know how it goes. I'm not a power user, but would like a little more to play with than what I've got (although I'm loving the pre-installed games!)

not quite cheap enough to warrant immediate purchase, can you put this shit in the net book thread, missed the first bargain till obi pointed it out the other day and they had all gone by then
