What's the point of having a powerful 3d graphics chip on a netbook at that price point?! Might as well buy a more powerful laptop with dual cpu and a decent 3d solution for a mere hundred more.

A $500.00 dollar net-book is sheer stupidity. Microsoft, quit being a bunch of greedy bastards. It's still a recession and us gamers would love to have a cost-effective net-book. Just think of all the extra PC games you could sell, you greedy bastards.

Windows 7 is not that different from Vista. it still has that clunky bloated over secured contankerous feel to the interface.

If you price the s12 or N510 above $400.00 it will do badly.

ION is totally pointless. At the same price with the intel platforms, or maybe a little more, it is a logical choice, the ONLY logical choice, but at this price it is nothing more than a great opportunity for Nvidia to make some money. The funny but not strange thing, in the forums that a visit at least, here in Greece, is that all the NVidia funboys are heavily promoting the ION platform but NO ONE is willing to pay for it!
