Only Windows 7 starter on netbooks. Who are we kidding. Of course Microsoft could afford to put Windows 7 Home Premium on netbooks. Afterall if Microsoft had their way about things we would have to pay a yearly fee for whatever OS we had. Bullies! Yes I agree. Only Windows 7 starter on netbooks. Who are we kidding.

I was fortunate and returned the netbook and swapped it for an Acer Netbook with XP.. cheaper too and really happy now to be back with XP I agree, I found Windows 7 Starter on my new Advent Netbook absolutely apalling.. many of my software applications simply couldn't be loaded and weren't recognised by windows 7.. sony picuture motion browser version 3.0, samsung PC studio are not compatible and will not work… I was fortunate and returned the netbook and swapped it for an Acer Netbook with XP.. cheaper too and really happy now to be back with XP

I have a new IdeaPad wth XP Home on it, and really like my new computer. I was thinking I'd perhaps buy another in the not-so-distant future, and your post is encouraging. It means we can have both ultraportability and full functionality going forward. So glad to hear that. I have a new IdeaPad wth XP Home on it, and really like my new computer.

I did some research and concluded that Windows 7 Starter was junk.

That's what I would do, even if just for store credit or to exchange for something else.

I had the option of the base model (Atom N450 processor, 1 GB RAM, 160 GB HD, Windows 7 Starter) or the upgrade (Atom N470, 2 GB RAM, 250 GB HD, Windows 7 Home Premium). Of course, I went with the upgraded one, but the surprising thing was for all that, it only cost $100 more. My point is that the price point between Windows 7 Starter and Home Premium on at least this netbook isn't nearly as bad as I anticipated, especially since it was bundled with extra power and space.
