Unit with all the accessories including the external DVD is a great buy


Dual core runs fasts(XP) Vista a little slow. Dual core CPU does run hot use a fan or cool pad to reduce the heat to acceptable levels. Needs a little more cooling capacity to increase longevity of the unit. Any air restriction can cause severe thermal issues. Bought a brand new keyboard under $20 installed in 5 minutes unit is used looks like new, A 12" screen netbook can't beat it. Very light easy to handle. Just keep it cool. A cool pad with fans keeps it under 50C on the CPU the hard drive is ok!

Hyundai-Kia pass Honda to become world's 5th largest automaker


Less than a decade ago, the Hyundai-Kia Automotive Group was ranked 11th in the world in total sales volume. According to the latest publishing of the Automotive News 2008 Global Data Book, the automaker has impressively passed Honda to take 5th position. To climb six positions in just eight years isn't a simple accomplishment as it required stepping over such global automakers as Fiat, Chrysler, PSA/Peugeot, Nissan, and Honda. Last year, Hyundai-Kia sold 3,961,629 automobiles worldwide (Hyundai sold 467,000, and Kia 305,473 in the United States alone). While they still have a long way before they reach 4th position currently held by Ford (global sales of 5,964,000 in 2007), their move into other markets as witnessed by the luxurious 2009 Hyundai Genesis and the group's favorable June automotive sales (even in a depressed market) demonstrate the increasing strength of the Korean automaker.
