  1. I researched netbooks extensively and came up buying this device. Amazon was the best and fastest deal. Out of the box I set up the Samsung Recovery 4 precisely as instructed. Problem is, every time I booted up afterwards, a warning page came up regarding above mentioned program. I figured out how to get around the page, but it took about 3 separate steps. 4 contacts with Samsung customer support failed to iron out the problem. I spent a lot of time and frustration (and online research) trying to eliminate the problem. Finally I realized, why put up with it, return it. I will not buy a Samsung computer again. It is their proprietary software, and they would not or could not get me out of it.

    Update: Amazon accepted the netbook back and gave me a full refund. The whole experience has taken a lot of my time, and created a lot of frustration (no help from Samsung customer support); but Amazon has been very fair and I have not taken a monetary loss on this netbook.

    One other complaint that I have is that when I typed, there were a lot of dropped letters. I had to really slow down and type the letters individually to avoid misspellings. Needless to say there is no way to adjust the key sensitivity.

    Also, Windows 7 starter is really barebones. MS could have provided more features.

  2. I wanted a compact, portable, no-frills laptop to take to work and on the road, and this netbook has fulfilled those expectations perfectly. The screen is easy to see even in bright light, the keyboard is quite comfortable, the blue cover doesn’t show every fingerprint, and despite the complaints of some reviewers concerning the limitations of Windows 7 Starter, the OS is completely functional and easy to get used to. I’d like to have my own desktop wallpaper, but I’ll get over it. The only problem was an AC adapter that stopped charging after a week, but Amazon sent a replacement which arrived the next day – probably the least painful resolution to a problem that I could ever imagine. I’m happy with both the netbook and the service.

  3. I’ve rolled out three of these netbooks for work, the following are my observations of this model.

    Pros

    + Virtually silent fan. I’ve set up an Acer netbook that had a fan that sounded like a mosquito so the quiet fan on this model is a plus.

    + Great construction quality. The plastics are very high quality.

    + Excellent keyboard. The keys are the right size (especially the right shift key which is a problem with other brands), and it’s very easy to type on with just a minimal adjustment period.

    + Matte screen (personal preference, but many of my users prefer matte screens as they are easier on the eyes and you can use matte screens outdoors without too much difficulty).

    Cons

    - Setup is a chore, the built in software wants to partition the drive upon first boot, so be prepared to let it sit and do setup for at least an hour after first boot. This might be confusing for some, and annoying for most people.

    - There is a lot of Samsung programs that you may want to remove after the setup is complete.

    - No recovery disk, just a recovery partition.

    - Really not liking the Samsung ‘recovery system’.

    Neutral

    = Same old 1024×600 screen. I’d love this in a 1366×768. This netbook does allow you to run the screen at 1024×768 by crunching the pixels slightly, which helps, but I’d rather see a 1366×768 option.

    = Windows 7 Starter. I’m glad the world is moving on from XP, but not being able to change the wallpaper without a third party utility seems like a petty feature to disable.

    General comments

    * Microsoft Security Essentials is an excellent anti virus program, and it’s free. Combine with Malware Bytes you are very well covered.

    * The Samsung N150 is probably the best choice of this generation of Atom N450 1024×600 screen netbooks.

    * I reformat ours by backing up the security certificate and the product key and using a universal Windows 7 boot disk.

    * Update 3/12/2010 – previously mentioned Atheros card problems aren’t really a problem. The card only supports 2.4ghz bands (no big deal), and the connection problem I was having was a glitch in our campus wireless system which was fixed. Wireless performs just fine.
