You can get it through British Telecom. The Samsung NC20 also packs a 1.3GHz Nano processor along with 1GB of high speed RAM. It is meant for those who are hunting for a portable computing device that sits between Intel’s Atom powered Notebooks and some other high-tech laptops.
The NC20 has got a12 inches of widescreen display that offers good aspect ratio and enough viewable area to enjoy movies and images on the go. According to the company the Samsung NC20 will run on Windows XP Home Edition operating system. It will also feature a 120GB hard disk drive. Therefore, if you are a moderate user then you will never fall short of storage space. As per the BT’s portal, the initial models of NC20 will be available in a white case. For those who like black have to wait till 9th March 2009. The Via Nano based processor has got an 800MHz of front side bus (FSB) and uses Via VX800 chipset as the core platform. The Via VX800 has got integrated hardware video decoders for high-definition video playback.
The Via Nano based NC20 is great but it is not meant for powerful computing. Although the Samsung NC20 is a great amalgamation of style, performance and productivity the Intel’s Atom based devices can offer you more speed.
