  I'm guessing Win 7 starter?

  to save me googling it, can someone tell me what limitations there are in Win 7 starter?

  To make you feel better, you can call me whatever insult you want while answering the above question and no offence will be taken :)

    Can't change the background, or at least not easily without a registry hack or extra software.

    No XP mode, just compatibly mode.

    No windows media center.

    Stuff like that, but it works, I'm using it right now. I don't feel limited except for the not being able to change the background (like… what the hell microsoft)

    Windows 7 Starter does not include:

    • Aero Glass, meaning you can only use the Windows Basic or other opaque themes. It also means you do not get Taskbar Previews or Aero Peek.
    • Personalization features for changing desktop backgrounds, window colors, or sound schemes.
    • The ability to switch between users without having to log off.
    • 64 bit version
    • Multi-monitor support.
    • DVD playback.
    • Windows Media Center for watching recorded TV or other media.
    • Remote Media Streaming for streaming your music, videos, and recorded TV from your home computer.
    • Domain support for business customers.
    • XP Mode for those that want the ability to run older Windows XP programs on Windows 7.

    I use it on my netbook and its fine fro regular office work and watching shows that have been downloaded.

  What is the brand? Generic no name? Plus Spec lists Atom processor not Core 2 Duo.

      There have been various Lenovo and Acer deals over the past 6 months or so for i3 15" for ~$400:

  You could get a higher spec 15 inch lenovo before christmas with full windows 7 54 bit, 2 gig and e300 processor (similar performance) for $280 with rebate. You can get it for $330 now with rebate - http://www.orangeit.com.au/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=13…

  This is a no-name (shanzhai) laptop that does not satisfy Intel's requirements of a netbook — Atom CPU's are supposed to be used only for netbooks with a screen panel size of 12.1" or less.
