Samsung NC10-13GB 10.1-Inch Blue Netbook - Up to 6 Hours of Battery Life Review

The netbook idea is great. This unit is really small and easy to carry. It does just about everything you would want in a portable home computer. Two reasons for not giving it 5 stars is battery life. The advertised 6 hours of battery life is way overstated. I'm seeing around 3-4 provided the battery is at full charge when I start. Next is the memory. I would like to have a little more memory to speed up operations. I think that with all the stuff that you want like music running and trying to surf the web at the same time or even playing cards or something, it would be most helpful to have a little more memory for speed as there's usually a lot of stuff running in the background sucking up memory and slowing things down a bit.
