It depends on what’s more important to you. The Samsung was easy to modify for the wifi card and has a superior keyboard, but the Asus has better community support and better battery life. Both are quality machines and can run Windows 7, Linux, or OS X just fine.

I’ll make the same suggestion I’m sure you’ve read and heard: go play with both and then decide. (There’s so many new models out now that there be something better anyway, or you may decide you want a 12″ machine instead of 10″.)

Do you think it is wise to get a Samsung NC10 or should I get an AsusEE?

Hey,
I have a white samsung n120 and I find the colour to be just fine. It’s a really solid netbook that once you put windows 7 on is an amazing experience. I’ve opted to get the extra 2gig ram which made it very snappy and then soon after got an intel x25-m SSD which made the computer run so fine i was flabbergasted. The netbook is an excellent computer that I think rivals my pc and notebook in some areas. Especially sound, it really clear and i would say definitely beats my laptops speakers.

Word, I just read your review using Windows 7 on my N120. It’s a lovely machine, and I opted for the black so luckily I don’t know how bad the white looks. Most everything is functional but yeah, you do need to track down a few drivers but then everything works as expected, including the home & end keys. I need to figure out this overclock key though, I haven’t read about that yet but I’m sure it will be useful.

Pretty comprehensive review but I would like to add that the upgrade to 2 GB is worth it. It’s very easy to swap the memory stick in yourself, and it creates a noticable snappiness to the response when you make the upgrade.

Comments aren’t lonely anymore. It was an interesting take on the subject on OS’s for the N120 that I haven’t found outside of forums. Thank you for the comparison.
