 Terrific Netbook December 3, 2009
Westley (Stuck in my head)
77 out of 81 found this review helpful
Note: I use computers for my work but don't pay much attention to details about them. I'm sometimes willfully ignorant of the details of my work computers, so this review (for better or worse) will not be a super technical one focusing on specifications and related details. I wanted a simple computer to use outside of work, and that's what I got here. I received this Dell Netbook a few days ago and wanted to share my initial impressions of it.
I do a great deal of writing for my job and need to have frequent email access. I have a Dell Notebook but find that it's a bit of a hassle hauling it around anywhere, so it ends up staying at home most of the time. When I saw this Dell's Netbook on sale, I thought it might be ideal for my needs. In particular, I wanted something very lightweight that would allow me to access the web, answer email, access PDF documents, and edit documents. This Dell does all that and much more.
My job buys all my computers (the last computer I purchased myself was a Commodore 64 when I was a kid!), so I was a bit nervous purchasing it. I checked out reviews here and elsewhere and they seemed to indicate that the Dell Netbook would work well for my needs. However, I was concerned by some accounts of netbooks being slower than laptops and having many of other deficits. Fortunately, my concerns were unfounded (it isn`t slow and I have low needs for extensive computer memory anyway). I've never had to unpack a computer before (the IT people at my job have that honor), but it couldn't have been easier. I was literally using my new Netbook within minutes. Everything was preloaded and ready for use.
I was hoping that it would come with Microsoft Word, but it instead includes Microsoft Works Word Processor, which I`d never used before. When I tried to open a Word document from my email, I was prompted to download Word Viewer. The two programs are compatible, but it is a bit of a hassle converting documents back and forth. Otherwise, I'm extremely pleased with my purchase. The Netbook is not slow in accessing the net even with numerous programs open at the same time. It is super lightweight -- not much bigger or heavier than a large hardback book. The battery in the back does stick out a bit, although that actually helps make it more stable on a flat surface. Even straight out of the box, the battery lasted well over 5 hours. Other features include a webcam, adobe, media player, explorer -- all the standard items you'd expect. As I mentioned, I don't pay much attention to computer specifications and whether it has this feature or not. I simply don't use my computers for anything too complicated. However, for what I need, this Dell Netbook more than exceeds my expectations. The Netbook's portability make it ideal for carrying it around and travel. I think it would also be a great starter computer for kids and teens.

My Dell Mini 10 (Model 1010) arrived today and I love it already. When I took the Mini 10 out of the box, the first thing I noticed was the bulge under the bottom rear of the unit (the six (6) cell battery). I spotted a funny object in the box that turned out to be a tiny little antenna. This confirmed the HDTV Tuner inside. I turned Mini 10 on and went through the brief setup. The keyboard feels good. Fascinated by the built-in HDTV, I affixed the tiny antenna next to the camera with the supplied mount, turned it on and waited while it scanned the available digital channels. It found all the local channels. The reception is great. I forgot about my new computer and admired the great TV reception for the next three hours.
After playing with the touch pad for a few minutes, I realized that a brief tap served as the mouse double-click (nice). HDMI, HDTV Tuner, Windows 7, 6-cell battery. This is a great little computer and a great deal.
Same configuration sells for $514.00 on the manufacturer's website[...] . At $399, you save $115 ($514 - $399 = $115)
I plan to uninstall the free MacAfee antivirus trial and replace it with the excellent free AVG Free Edition Antivirus ([..]). The included Microsoft Works word processor program is better than my old version of Microsoft Word 2000. More than adequate for my needs. Windows 7 Starter is lite, fast and great for my needs. Great Cyber Monday deal. Thanks Amazon for putting together a great unit for a great price!

Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R37716YEML2NA7 I was relunctant to get the Dell Mini 10 because of some bad reviews I read. However, I am very happy with my choice of netbook. This is my 3rd netbook and it is as fast as the other ones. Its not a laptop. So a little slowness is to be expected.
I was worried about the touch pad, but have found no problem with it.
It does tend to get a little hot so a cooling pad would probably be a good purchase.
I pick up 26 digital channels at home and they show beautifully. I am totally impressed with the digital tv tuner.
I am also loving the HDMI. I believe this is the only netbook of this size that has a HDMI.
The 6 cell battery sticks out a bit under the computer. It helps raise it up so that it stays cooler.
It boots up fairly quickly.
I find no faults at all with this computer.
My Favorite New Toy! A Must Have & Whats With the Bad Reviews? January 2, 2010

Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R18XXRNU130938 My Favorite New Toy! A Must Have & Whats With the Bad Reviews?
I just purchased my Dell Mini 10 (Blue Cover) and I have to say that this was one of the best investments I ever made. If you think you are getting a high end laptop for the price of three-hundred bucks, then you are sorely mistaken. This is basically a smart phone PDA increased to the size of a ten inch screen with a keyboard attached. Most of the bells & whistles are intact.
At first it took me some time to get use to the screen. Websites are slightly altered due to the 10 inch screen, so and with the tool bar on top that includes (File, Refresh, etc) it can seem like there's hardly any room to view webpage's, but you'll get use to it. Viewing any site that you would on a regular desktop will have certain parts of the page moved around when viewing it on your netbook & this is to be expected because of the size.
I know everyone is complaining about the keypad, but it's really not that bad. It does take a few tries before you realized what works best for you. I've learned from having a Dell Studio Laptop that the best thing to do is just utilize the free space as a mouse and click. Don't bother trying to hit down on the key, but just double tap on the keypad to pick a selection. If you don't, you will find the experience of navigating through websites, typing a document on word, etc to be a horrendous experience.
Otherwise, if you are looking for a great small compact netbook to stay connected to the web, check email, browse a few sites - then this is the netbook for you. There isn't much customization due to the small size of the netbook that feels very light just a little under three pounds and practically smaller and skinnier then the new Twilight book. I would have it ordered it on amazon, but it was cheaper through Dell.
Overall, I am very pleased with my purchase because it's a great investment for anyone who needs internet access on the go. The only complaint I have is the price. I know its three-hundred, but I own a regular laptop with a 15 inch screen & that HP was only three-hundred. Sure, it was not a high end groundbreaking laptop, but it does the trick & power wise, it's stronger than the mini. I really feel the price point should drop by hundred bucks. Otherwise, this is still a great PC tool to have.
Pros:
Light weight (Less then three pounds)
Customizable Cover with different colors
Windows XP (Thank GOD - Vista is so WHACK)
Keyboard is 90% size of a real keyboard
Wi-Fi
3 USB slots
160GB Memory
1.66 GHZ
1GB RAM
Cons:
A bit pricey IMO - It really should be two hundred & under
No DVD Slot
Dell Inspiron Mini 10.1 Obsidian with TV Tuner February 26, 2010

For the price I dont think you will find a better mini. Out of the box it found my wireless connection right away and upon opening the TV tuner I scanned for local channels and it found a few. The picture clarity is nice and watching television is an added bonus. It functions well and as far as speed, it has done fine. Not super fast, but gets around the internet and does what I need it to do. You cannot upgrade the memory however-YOU CAN INCREASE MEMORY BY USING A MEMORY CARD-I inserted a 4GB and it instantly came up with something called "cache boost" and I alloted the amount of memory from that card I wanted to let the computer us a ram, (leaving a bit of memory for picture and file storage). The 6 cell battery is nice as it is a bit thicker than the computer so when the computer is on a flat surface it creates air space to assist with cooling. I ordered a mouse to go with this as I hate using a touch pad, so I havnt any review for the touch pad. Battery has been used for approx six hours so far, about to need a charge. You CANNOT customize your desktop wallpaper-its disabled unless you upgrade. Not important to me, but be aware. This has been the best income tax refund present I have ever purchased. I paid $320. I would purchase again.
