Dell Mini 10v: a netbook for under £200

Dell Mini 10v: a netbook for under £200 Hit by the recession? Then you, my friend, need a budget netbook...

Netbooks are cheap at the best of times, but the Dell Mini 10v takes the term “budget” to new heights, because this little beauty has just gone on sale in the UK for under £200!

The Dell Mini 10v comes at a time when more netbooks have surfaced than MP expense claims scandals. All of which means to stand out, and indeed survive, a netbook must have an angle. And the Dell Mini 10v’s angle is that cheap price!

A pared down version of the Dell Mini 10 netbook, the Dell Mini 10v only has 8GB of Flash memory, plus it’s ditched Windows XP in favour of Linux (although for an extra £80 you can get an XP model with 160GB hard drive). You also get a 1024×576-pixel screen and 1.6GHz processor.

On sale now, the Dell Mini 10v is the perfect antidote to your recession woes.

I got one of those netbook for christmas and it's one of the best things i have ever got (it's close to the ipod touch), the screen is a bit small but when you change from ubuntu to windows XP it's well worth it. I would recomend this netbook to anyone who is thinking to get one!:)
