Dell Mini 12 My review

November 15, 2008
Features are 12.1in 1,280 x 800 screen 1.6GHz Intel Atom Z530 CPU 1GB DDR2 RAM 80GB hard drive Windows Vista Home Basic Edition 25.5mm thick, 1.25Kg 3-cell 24WHr battery The use of an Atom CPU with a mere 1GB of RAM to play Windows Vista Home Basic Edition. A Linux system is expected to come later, so it’s not all bad news though. The Mini 12 costs £429 If considered as a small, low-powered and above all portable notebook, then, the Mini 12 could be a lot more attractive.
