    Make it at least 14" and I'd be interested.

    This deal has been on and off for a few months now....

    Anyway, I think that the small size is part of the appeal. I don't want to be lugging around a 6+ lb notebook. The M11x provides decent power in a portable package. Hook it up to a larger display when you want to game and you're good to go.

    This is the first model, so no this will not have new hinges.

    This is a netbook on steroids. Better screen (1366*768 vs typical 1024*600), better video (discrete GeForce GT335 vs typical integrated IntelHD), arguably better CPU (1.3GHz ULV C2D vs Atom).

    Yes, but it also seems more bulky than a typical netbook as well.

    I bought this a couple months ago when it was also $550. Great little laptop. Battery life when you need it and pretty decent gpu when you wanna play a game.

    This is a great deal. I was able to get an outlet system for $480 but this is brand new!
