The Mini PC makes a charge

The novelty of the mini pc is looking to wear off and soon. At one time the thought of a computer the size of a woman's handbag was thought impossible. Then it was thought not worth the price for such little power. Little known companies like ASUS and MSI entered the market a few years back and I am sure you never even knew. The fact that now Dell and the other largest pc manufacturer HP have entered the "netbook" arena goes to show the new found use and productivity that can be seen in a pocket sized (albeit kinda big pocket) computer. Dell's Inspiron Mini 9 has the latest Intel chip the Atom and comes standard with a solid state drive. While the SSD capacity may be lacking, the Window's XP based Mini 9 packs the punch you need for a commuter laptop. Dell has created a computer that rivals any other available netbook on the market and throws great prices at you as well keeping any configuration under $500. For the older crowd, remember you glasses for that tidy 8.9" screen. And of course warm up the fingers for a keyboard that is screaming to be a little bigger. But in the end the Dell Inspiron Mini 9 is a stroke of genuis for Dell and two maybe three strokes (ehm) of fun for you and me.
