You posted the exact same message regarding the g netbook on at least 7 different websites . You must work for Microsoft.

I'm thinking of buying this notebook but there's things I want to find out first. OK, you use external optical drive for this one. Anyone tried to watch movies with this notebook. What video format does it support? Does it play DVD movies? Anyone tried to use the webcam and the microphone at the same time? What video format does it create? Is the video good?

If you don't know linux, stay away from this one. Its slightly better then the first cloudbook but definitely not a good choice for an average pC user. You wont be able to run most popular software and there is zero technical support.

I received the Sylvania G Netbook as a gift.. Perfect to take with me when I travel. I am eliminating one heavy bag. Great price. Is worth it.

I bought this. It is awesome. It is incredibly light and comes bundled with all the top internet applications - skype, etc. They did a great job in setting up the gOS to be a real user friendly experience. The wireless works flawlessly, and with 1 GB of ram and a 30GB hard drive, I would rather have this than an iPod. The screen is nice and clear and everything fits on the display (I have read the everex horror stories). The mouse is a little small, but it is extremely responsive and I got used to it within a few minutes. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with this purchase. Finally, NetBooks are a reality.

Have played around with this netbook. The gOS problems seem to be gone, it worked well...WiFi was reliable and 1 GB of RAM...not bad for $399, not bad at all. Especially when Asus is coming out with $600 pieces totally unlike their mission of making a low cost portable pc.
