Averatec Launches Lightest 10-Inch Netbook on the Planet
Netbooks are all about portability, and for the time being, Averatec trumps all others in that department, or so the company claims. Averatec this week announced its N1200 netbook, which it says is the thinnest and lightest 10.1-inch netbook on the market.
Measuring 10.7 x 6.5 x 9 inches (without the feet), the N1200 weighs a mere 2.2 pounds. It's also fairly attractive for a netbook, eschewing a glossy chassis in favor of a brushed steel appearance on the lid.
Inside it all sits what you'd expect from a modern netbook. The N1200 ships with an Intel Atom N450 processor clocked at 1.66GHz, 1GB of DDR2 memory, a 160GB hard drive, 1.3MP webcam, 801.11n Wi-Fi, and other odds and ends, including Windows XP Home. It also comes standard with a 3-cell battery, though there's an option to upgrade to a 6-cell.
Look for this one later this month at Best Buy, Office Max, and TigerDirect.com for $380.

I think the dimensions are wrong? I think it's supposed to be 0.9 inches thick instead of 9 inches.
