Laptop without keyboard.

Samsung Notebook N310 has everything and a little more.
I admit I wavered for a few days over the issue of buying a new computer. After listening to opinions of friends, reading reviews of computers in the internet and offline magazines, I suddenly entertained a dilemma.
All the new insight that I have gained suggested that I should buy a laptop but I assumed that I won’t be comfortable handling a laptop.
I spent a sleepless afternoon. When I finally got up for my evening math class, I made up mind. I will buy the latest Samsung Notebook N310 of which the market buzz is too loud to ignore.
A few features of this cute notebook computer favored my decision though the price is on the higher side. Even a third party review (cnet.co.uk) too felt the same but being an ardent fan of Samsung products, I overlooked the price factor.
For me, the biggest concern has been the portability of the laptop. My body will stage a strong protest if I burden it with anything above 2KG. Fortunately, Samsung Notebook N310 weighs just 1.23Kg.
I am assured of a battery life of up to 10 hours though I will be happy if I get only half of that.
I don’t have big ears for music; so the SRS sound with 2.1 channel speakers won’t matter much to me but my son is excited about it. (I should pretend I am very busy with this laptop)
In the review of Samsung Notebook N310, I read that the gadget’s outer surface is made of rubberized plastic that makes it easy to slide it in its case. In my opinion, this is a thoughtful feature of its design.
Oh, yes, the laptop comes with 3 USB ports and an Ethernet card that are the basic requirements these days. But the VGA port for hooking the N310 up to an external display or projector is certainly a bonus for teachers like me.
Now, before I buy, I am seriously looking for feedback from those who are already using the Samsung Notebook N310.
Please, leave your feedback by commenting on this blog post. I thank you in advance.
