As of late, it has become ever more difficult to browse the Internet without spotting a few more details on some of the many netbooks out there, or even info on an altogether new system of this kind. This time around, it’s Samsung's recently released netbook, the NC10 that is making the headlines, as it is surfacing on several websites.
The company's first netbook has, as some of you already know, been designed to compete with ASUS’ Eee PC 1000, MSI's Wind U100, Lenovo's S10 or, as a matter of fact, with any other netbook out there that features a 10-inch LCD screen. As is the case with the afore-mentioned netbooks, Samsung's NC10 is also powered by the highly successful Intel Atom processor, running at 1.6GHz. It comes with 1GB of RAM, a maximum of 160GB of storage space, 3 USB ports, 3-in-1 card reader, VGA output, 1.3MP webcam, 6-cell battery and Microsoft's Windows XP Home operating system.
Recent rumors indicate that Samsung's netbook will be made available in Europe sometime in October, with the pricing being expected somewhere around £329 or US$590. However, unlike countless other netbooks on the market, most of which are likely based on MSI's Wind, this Samsung NC10 does deliver some note-worthy differences, aside from the features just mentioned before.
One of the first things that NC10 users will probably notice is the larger keyboard design, which, if compared with those on most of the other netbooks on the market, doesn't make that many compromises. It actually has enough space to include the Page Up and Page Down buttons, as the arrow keys have been placed slightly below the rest of the keyboard. In addition, the netbook can be connected to an external display for a maximum resolution support of 2048 by 1536 at 85HZ. Also, all of the above is packed in a netbook system that is said to weigh only about 1.33kg.
