Not Too Bad

AVERATEC Desktop PC Danube D1130EA1E-1 1.60GHz 1GB DDR2 160GB HDD 18.4" Windows XP Home

Pros: Does the job adequately Actually Runs Vista better than XP Compact and Light Weight

Cons: Front panel buttons are same color as panel, who thought this up? Replacing HD and/or RAM is a bear

Overall Review: Great computer for around the $300 I paid. In most cases, you can't get a decent monitor for that much! By the way, the USB problem occurs when you delete the Norton anti-virus that's included. The TriGem (parent company) website has a patch to correct the problem. Tried Vista Ultimate by the way (got a preview disk for another review). Actually works quicker than XP on this model, even with an Atom processor!

Most Critical Review

It's Barebone, Folk!

PC Rides Chevy Camaro NVIDIA ION 2 x 240Pin NVIDIA ION graphics processor Red Mini / Booksize Barebone System

Pros: It looks like a Camaro About $300 cheaper than normal retail

Cons: No hard drive No RAM No OS You're paying for the Camaro looks

Overall Review: Before you ordered keep in mind this comes with essentially nothing but the DVD drive and processor. You'll have to add the RAM and HDD in order to make it functional. Oh, and don't forget the OS. Factor these in and you've got another $200 minimum which places this in the high quality netbook category.
