I gave this netbook 5 stars. I bought it for 289 and wasn’t expecting a supercomputer for the size or price. I use it mainly for the internet and Microsoft Office. Didn’t have any problems with the wireless at all. It has fantastic battery life and a battery life extender feature that only charges it 80% if you want to hold out the life or 100% if you need the superfluous power. Runs about 6 hours with the 80% charge. The keyboard is simple to use. Windows 7 is limited, but again.. for the price what were you expecting? Very nearly all new netbooks come with Windows 7. I didn’t buy the dvd guide and so far place of protection’t had a need for it since all programs you can bed in via download or sparkle guide. The erect in SD slot is clever for downloading pictures from your digicam.

Built in webcam is also a clean small feature for web conferencing. The processor is a bit slow, you need to know that this is not a desktop replacement mainframe. Web and Office are the most this business can soubriquet at once. I did look up buying an superfluous ac adapter from Samsung and it was sweet expensive compared to how much the netbook cost. I uninstalled a lot of the programs that came with the notebook which also helped boost performance. I upgraded to 2 gigs of ram which helped a lot also. By and large a fantastic deal and I would recommend it for the road, for class or for an superfluous notebook.

You’re buying a netbook, not a full fledged powerful notebook. Know its limitations.

I like this Netbook. BUT it’s barely functional without 2GB of Ram. I’m no geek, the difference is incredibly noticeable. I had huge problems with Sparkle at sites like Hulu and reviews said that the Atom processor can’t really run sparkle but not right – the problem was trying to run it with the 1GB. With 2GB this netbook will do everything you need it to do.

I’ve had the Samsung N150 since March and really like it. It’s light and quick, which is exactly what I was looking for as far as a netbook. I feel like I got a winner in my book. I did add/change some things on the N150.

–Upgraded to 2GB

–After about 6 weeks of owning, I upgraded to full version of Windows 7. Glad I did. The basic starter version is eh…okay, but full version is much better. I reflect it even runs nearer than before the upgrade.

–I ditched the free McAfee virus protection and went with the free Windows Securities Elemental. Simple to bed in and unobtrusive, unlike McAfee. (Be sure to remove McAfee first)

–The N150 comes with a free trial of WORD 2007 and I got fortunate in that I had bought a copy of Home & Student 2007 eighteen months ago. It allows me to use for up to three computers, so all I had to do was type in the code and have full use of WORD 2007.

The Samsung N150 starts up quick and the screen is bright and clear. I place of protection’t tried to power down the battery yet, but have used it for three hours with no problems. One suggestion I have is to NOT place in a sparkle guide at initiation up. I had the netbook lock up at initiation up before I figured out it was the sparkle guide.

By and large, I highly recommend the Samsung N150 for anyone looking for an brilliant, well-built netbook.
