You may be able to get it cheaper if using a varsity card ..
Whilst there may be hugely powerful laptops out there - you could be paying way over the odds for a lot of functionality that you will never benefit from. This lightweight, low-cost laptop does exactly as it says. There are very few if any laptops that match the minibook mini laptop for value; it''s the perfect micro laptop for surfing the web and undertaking word processing tasks on the move - or even if you just want to save space. One thing you instantly notice about this mini laptop is its size and weight; it is an excellent travel companion as well as perfect PC for carrying around the house. The outer casing has an attractive piano-black finish, the keyboard is tactile, the mouse pad easy to use and the 7-inch digital screen provides a perfectly clear image. If you want a laptop for powerful performance, such as for gaming or movie editing, we could recommend a long list of brands. But this is not what this mini laptop is about; it's about being compact, lightweight, well-built, functional and fantastic value for money. If you're looking for these features, then there are no rivals to the mini-book.

I'd say for most people avoid this, especially so if you don't know what the difference between x86 and mips is!
Ah a genuine ]Noddy computer.
Seriously though. This is a very limited device, should only be bought by someone who fully understands its limitations. 99% of buyers would be far better off spending another £30- £50 on a refurb Acer or Wind.
