MSI U210 (008US)

The differences among netbooks are increasing, and the lines between netbooks and notebooks are blurring—at least physically. The MSI U210, for example, is a netbook with a 12-inch screen, full keyboard, fast AMD Neo processor, 2GB of memory, and HDMI port. Not many netbooks can claim those specs. And although the battery life isn't on par with other smaller netbooks, you're still getting a lot of system for your money.
