Dell today launches it's "student rugged" Latitude 2100 netbook, a colorful new netbook line designed specifically for K-12 students. As such, a number of features separate the 2100 from your standard-fare netbook.
Hardware-wise, the 10.1-inch 2100 comes equipped with an Intel Atom N270 processor (1.6GHz, 533MHz frontside bus, 512KB L2 cache), up to 2GB of memory, HDD or SDD (16GB SSD comes standard), integrated Intel GMA950 graphics, 3-in-1 media card reader, and choice of Ubuntu, Windows XP, or Vista. Dell also says the optional touchscreen is a first for education netbooks.
The 2100 is available now starting at $369.
