I'm still waiting for the one I ordered to come through from the previous Boffer Deal Thread but from the ones I've used before (at various clients) it feels like a laptop running between 400MHz to 800MHz speeds, so it's slower to work on when compared to Atom CPU based Netbooks that are out there.

Despite that it is still a good quality netbook to use (check out the comments on the Boffer Deal Thread on the early posts) and the build quality is impressive but this is definitely not a netbook you would use for playing older graphic intensive computer games (as you can with the Atom CPU based Netbooks) - using a RAM Disk has been seen to increase performance as well.

Edit - Here's some performance links to give you an idea on it's capabilities.

Vista Service Pack 1 and XP Service Pack 3 with updated drivers Mini-Note Benchmarks

Mini-Note Performance Tests with Windows XP
http://www.hpminiguide.com/mini-note...th-windows-xp/

Edit 2 - Here's a very good performance comparison chart to refer to; this chart allows you to create updated comparisons against netbooks that LaptopMag have reviewed previously.

Are you typing it in or pasting it in? It is case sensitive from what I saw and I made sure that there were no spaces at the end of it when I had pasted it in.
