Hi,

Im going to admit i've not got a clue what Im looking at when I see one of these tiny things that are portrayed as a 'computer'.

I need something thats good, it will perform at word processing, creating presentations etc and not just able to do it. I would appreciate if it was priced accordingly to my specifications.

Thankyou very muchlings.
 
Touche

Alright, I want a Giggiliybyte of RAM
One of those Duel Wielding Cores (don't want to mess around with one of these)
Decent enough graphics to power the OS aka Vista
Reasonable HD space
Wireless, so it has no wires
and perhaps a free all-in-one printer and some softwarez.

Cheers
 
It certainly looks the part,

Though Im wondering what's the difference between Vista Business and Home versions?.
