Hi Eleanor.Unfortunately they aren't available in the shops, I had to buy mine online. I believe Argos used to sell them but whether in store or online only I don't know. What I can tell you however is that if I sell you my spare one and you don't like it, providing you don't switch it on and register XP in your name, I'll give you a full refund of your money when the netbook gets sent back to me. You can't argue with that now can you? *smile*. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Eleanor Burke" <eleanorburke@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Do you know where they are sold please?-original message- Subject: [access-uk] Re: Recommendations - Lightweight Notebook Computers From: "Ibrahim Gucukoglu" <ibrahim_gucukoglu@xxxxxxxx> Date: 12/04/2010 10:45 am Hi Dennis.No problem. Looking through my email to you though, I neglected to mention the weight, a meer 1.1 KG is all this little machine weighs, so powerful as a notebook it may not be, but its one of the smallest netbooks I've seen andhighly portable. All the best, Ibrahim.----- Original Message ----- From: "Denis Tocher" <dentoc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, April 12, 2010 10:35 AM Subject: [access-uk] Re: Recommendations - Lightweight Notebook ComputersHi Ibrahim, Thanks very much for this advice and the useful details.

I know exactly what you mean, considering even the 10.1 inch netbooks to be too large, I'm currently packing an 8.9 inch zoostorm machine. Zoostorm are a british company who specialise in laptops and netbooks for budget usersand children, however the Freedom netbook is one of the best netbooks that they've produced and I'm absolutely loving it. Firstly the best part, one can be had for under £200 which if one is looking for a computer shouldn'teven stretch the most modest of purse strings. It has an Intel Atom 1.6 GHZ processor, 160GB hard drive, 1GB DDR2 memory, integrated 83 key keyboard, touchpad and sound system and wired and wireless N networking. You also get a web camera for video confrencing. This is almost identicle to the N120 netbook you have there, just at almost a third of the price less. The only thing I would say though is that the battery offers up a modest 3.5 hours battery life, however by dimming the display and tweeking a few othersettings, I've managed to get mine to pump out an additional 45 minutes orso. If you are at all interested, I know where one can be had for considerably less than the retail price so please don't hesitate to email me privately. All the best, Ibrahim.----- Original Message ----- From: "Denis Tocher" <dentoc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Sunday, April 11, 2010 8:46 PM Subject: [access-uk] Recommendations - Lightweight Notebook ComputersHello All, Could anyone with experience of notebooks weighing a few pounds please recommend one? I possess a Samsung N120 and like it a lot but it is still too heavy for me to tote around and use on the lap for long. Presumably you have to sacrifice hard disk memory for the lower weight? Memory is important as I am a user of a number of client software programmes and Jaws etc. I would like a notebook to ensure the keys are large enough.
