taylor,

you can buy a USB optical drive, or if you are on a home network, you can "share" a drive with another computer.

u are all wrong ! the atom is a great econom cpu and u can do severall appz with it such as firefox, mp3, photoshop at the same time

Sure, I never said it doesn't make a great economical CPU, I just said it has absolutely terrible performance. Go ahead, do a benchmark, it is significantly slower than the Celeron M they put in the original EEE, and a fraction of the speed of any Core based laptop or desktop processor. I own a Acer Aspire One, and it runs things just fine, but that's because it's not running Vista and playing games.

vista is much more a matter of RAM rather than CPU.

im getting a wind next weekend and i ordered an extra gb RAM, to but in så i come to a total of 2 gb RAM. and then im planning on running vista on it. i hear that the battery time with it is almost 3 hours with vista vs. the 2 hours with xp.

Does this have an optical drive(CD drive) built-in?

No, there's no optical drive built-in.

Hi minipcpro how do i get my hands on one of them? here in usa

is there any cheap "netbook" with portreplicator available?
