*/The Samsung NC10 is, quite simply, the best netbook money can buy at
the moment. While there's no one feature that puts it head and shoulders
above everything else out there, the combination of superb build quality
and attention to detail gives the NC10 a distinct edge over the
competition.

Things like the matte finish which doesn't attract fingerprints (I'm not
a fan of the White, but there are Blue and Black variants as well
though), the excellent keyboard and one of the best screens we've seen
on a netbook to date just demonstrate the thought and effort Samsung has
put into this little device.

Of course, there are downsides like the trackpad and accompanying
buttons, which we would have preferred to be a bit bigger, and we can't
forget the performance limitations imposed on netbooks. Forget about
watching high-definition video and doing other CPU-intensive tasks if
you're not prepared to wait because, like every other netbook out there,
the heart of the NC10 isn't designed with high performance in mind.
Instead, the Intel Atom processor inside this device is all about
delivering / /good enough computing and that's exactly what the NC10
delivers.

Frankly, that's about all we have been able to come up with and, as far
as I'm concerned, if that's all that is wrong with a device that costs
less than £300 (including VAT) then we're onto a winner./
