Netbook Performance, Win 7 Starter vs Others...
Hey everyone.. so I have some possibly awesome news, I just got a netbook. Well a HP Mini. And here is the best part. For FREE.. I have a friend that has a 4 month old HP Mini and he says its small and pointless. SO I said "well give it to me then" ill use it daily....he text me back and said okay i'll bring it tomorrow.. So yesterday he gave it to me and said put this in ur car. And now i have it.. totally awesome if I get to keep it.
It is a black with swirly design HP Mini 110-1125 is the model.
Windows 7 Starter
Intel Ion N270 I think. 1.6GHz CPU, with 1GB RAM AND 160 GB hard drive 11" screen. 6 cell battery. Its pretty nice. I'm pretty sure its mine now. Its got webcam. Brand new mini basically.
So, question. Does anyone have one? I read 2GB Mazzini. I think that's cuz only 1 slot. Ill open her up tonight and check. I am wondering if I change her to 2GB of ram, that should be enough for 7 Home Edition, or pro, or will the Intel onboard Graphics struggle with Aero? I read a few newegg and Amazon reviews that said it ran small games n stuff ok.
What does everyone think. Starter is ok but missing lots of features. Like bridge connections and other things. Thanks!
