In this my first review for Tweakers.net. I got this netbook a few months now and in the meantime a few modifications made as the FULL ION hack and adding memory to 3GB. Officially, this netbook was equipped with Windows XP, but using an upgrade is now Windows 7 Ultimate on it. Also I have a custom BIOS flashed so that more options are available in the BIOS (such as allocating memory timings, overclock may bilities memory to the graphics map and some other settings). I overclock my netbook (yet), because the performances as they are now, really perfect for my purposes. The only thing I did was put the graphics memory to 512MB (default is 224MB to 3GB of RAM). HD (1080p) plays the Mini 311c perfectly without stuttering. I use XBMC for myself, but with Media Player Classic works just as well. Youtube HD material is not entirely without jolts or shocks, but that is because Flash Player 10.1 Beta is not fully optimized (hence the BETA). I notice that it is getting better with Flash when I compare with the RC1 and RC3, which I have now installed. The battery lasts about 5 to 6 hours along with active use with WiFi on, and watch movies does the battery about 4.5 hours. But I must tell you that when I use a custom is "Balanced" power plan in Windows 7. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare doing very nice on this thing, and Tales of Monkey Island plays the netbook also fine without any problems . Furthermore, I actually tested any games because I use it more for internet and video (possibly via HDMI to my TV). Games I'd rather do so on my PC. Finally, as the WEI scores of Windows 7: Processor: 2.3 Memory: 4.5 Graphics: 4.5 Gaming Graphics: 5.3 Primary Hard Disk: 5.7 Furthermore, I'm not really much to tell, but if there any questions, I'd love to hear that
