Hi,
I've just bought a netbook with windows 7 starter edition its a HP mini 110-3500 which i was assured by the sales assistant has a good processor (intel Atom N550) anyway it seems to be quite slow respinding to commands i.e. opening up explorer etc. My first question is do all netbooks perform like this running windows starter and would upgrading the OS help performance?

OS
Windows 7 Starter
Updating from Starter to Home Premium may help once you get access to Windows Aero, the full glass transparent window frames. Running Aero will offload a lot of the GUI work onto the GPU in turn greeing up a bit of the CPU. Should help to make it a little more responsive.
