Like virtually any other supplier of PCs, LG is constantly working on newer and better products, whether they are PC components or entire systems. One of the machines it has been working on for a while is known as the LG X140 and is an entry-level mobile PC that, though it is based on the Pine Trail platform, has better than average specifications compared to its peers. Basically, it is one of the more powerful in its class, though it doesn't come with the NVIDIA ION GPU.
The X140 has, at the heart of its configuration, an Intel Atom processor with a clock speed of 1.83GHz. This CPU is backed up by 2GB of RAM and paired with the GMA (Graphics Media Accelerator) 3150 integrated graphics. Also, its 10.1-inch display has a native resolution of 1366 x 768 pixels, which means it can handle HD videos, though the GMA will have to work especially hard to make the best of this feature. Needless to say, the rest of the specification sheet comes with all the obligatory connectivity and I/O options.
LG implemented the obvious Ethernet connectivity, as well as WiFi and a 1.3 megapixel webcam. SRS TruSurround HD sound is also present, as is 3G and a battery life of up to a more than decent nine hours. As such, one can assume that this device will perform well as a traveling companion during long train or plane trips. As for what it can actually do during such long hours, the 320GB hard disk drive will be sure to house a plethora of files and folders for end-users to play with.
In order to appeal to a wider range of consumers, the X140 netbook is sold not just with a black casing, but also in hot pink and white variations. Finally, it is pre-loaded with the Microsoft Windows 7 Starter operating system and sells for roughly $490.
