   This is a great computer to take to a hotel…. It is not meant for solid home use; the keyboard is too small, and the memory isn’t great.

   You can actually use the keyboard, but I do find myself pecking with one finger a lot, which is why I didn’t give it a five star. The speed is pretty fair, and the wireless connection is awesome. I can get a signal in a room that I could not get on my wireless laptop, which makes it a nice little computer to use in my bedroom if my husband is on our main computer. I previously had no way of connecting to the internet in that room, but thanks to this computer and our wireless system, I can.

   It was easy to set up (almost no set up required), easy to figure out, for this novice, and easy to connect to the internet. The Linux, which the salesman warned me about, and my teenager told me I would hate, was not an issue at all. It doesn’t take any prevous knowledge of how to use linux. It was easy to connect to the internet at the hotel and at home.

   It serves my purpose perfectly (throw in a back pack to take on vacation to connect to the internet). I haven’t really done anything with documents. It doesn’t have a lot of memory or a place to put a dvd…, but you can use a card… for memory and add an external disk drive. I wouldn’t want to type a whole lot on it. It is best for net surfing, checking e-mail…, but like I said, you can use the keyboard. It just takes a little more effort than a full size.

   I bought a little mouse to go with it, and it is handy dandy! I also like the little neoprene or whatever it is called cover (quite awesome). It is great protection for it. I put the mouse and cord in a little make up bag and throw in my back pack with it.
