Does Size Matter?

Weighing a little over a pound, and measuring 10.1" in diagonal length, you can fit this little monster in your bag, or carry it inconspicuously. And with a 6 to 8 hour battery life, it sure can come in handy, when you really need it. It can make your day!

I know where you can get it, if you would just continue reading on...

Of course, I'm talking about a NetPC.

What is a NetPC, you ask?

It's a cross between a PDA and a Laptop, where it takes the advantages of both worlds, meshing them into a very useful and versatile tool - one that you can take nearly anywhere with you.

A NetPC can run most of the recent software that are available, such as Windows XP, Windows Vista, and even Microsoft Office, .

Typically, it runs on what is called "Solid-state hard-drive" (SSD) which is a complicated name for an "internal flash-drive." The SSD drive is what enables memory with low power usage. However, it could run on a regular hard-drive as well.

I've been reviewing the HP NetPC 110, and it's a very robust machine. It comes with 3 USB ports, an Ethernet Port, an internal wireless card, an on-board camera, a single speaker, a headphone jack, an Intel Atom dual-core CPU, and 1GB ram, as well as a 16GB SSD-drive.

I has a monitor port, so you can connect a large monitor and run everything on it.

And it comes with an SD memory card port, to boot, so you can expand the machine's capacity as to the applications that it can run.

What else can you fit into the little package?

It comes loaded with Windows XP, Microsoft Office (trial version), and a host of other applications that anybody could possibly think they would need.

Another advantage of the system is the ability to go into "Sleep mode" as soon as you close its lid, and has one of the fastest wake up times seen to-date.

Priced at around $300.00, you can not go wrong with this sweet deal, perfect for the student or professional on-the-run. It is available at almost any office supply store, in your neighborhood. Or you can buy it directly from DanLogix.com.

So, it definitely can fulfill its role due to its size, and portability.
