For an additional sum of Rs.2000(approx) you could get XP home. My dealer told me that as soon as they bring this particular lappies, they get sold immediately. On you tube I saw one video where Adobe cs4 is working very nicely in this lappy.

Can someone tell me whether it is a decent VFM product. And exact price and configuration.

 

[Ramakrishnan]

if you don't mind small screen, have no idea of playing latest games and then this can be yours. I feel this is VFM for the size and config.

Can the netbook be connected to external monitor and keyboard/mouse for ease of use when at home/office?

ya at this price it is VFM but on the otherside of coin this decrease in price is to clear the stock as acer will be launching 10" screen version of aspire one in feb.
also lots of new netbooks are to be launched by various companies in 2-3 months
