At long last, Dell has finally made their Mini 10 netbook available for order via their website. The netbook has been available for pre-order the past few days, but now it’s officially on sale. And, after a few price changes, they were finally able to settle on a reasonable $399.
The netbook has plenty to offer, packing a 1.33GHz Intel Atom processor, Windows XP Home SP3, a 10.1 inch anti-glare display with a native resolution of 1024x576, 160GB HDD, 1GB DDR2 RAM, a wireless 802.11g card, and an Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 500 video card.
Unfortunately, the customization options for the Mini 10 are limited. Aside from getting a whole host of colors to choose from, you can only bump up the processor from 1.33GHz to 1.6GHz. But, if you’re looking for a cheap netbook that will provide plenty of horsepower for your work-related needs, the Mini 10 doesn’t seem like such a bad choice.
