ASUS Sells SeaShells With The 1015PN

"If you've laid eyes on any of ASUS' recent "Seashell" netbooks, the 1015PN will look extremely familiar. It's got the same soft-to-the touch lid as the 1015PE and 1215N as well as the same chassis design. We're happy to see that ASUS exterminated the traces of glossy plastic around the exterior of the system, however, there are still some glossy surfaces that didn't make the cut -- the wide screen bezel and keyboard deck still love fingerprints."

The ASUS 1015PN probably comes close to the cutting edge in terms of netbooks. Lightweight and tiny, but packing some extra GPU oomph for situations when you either want to do a little bit of light gaming, movie watching, or even some video rendering. The dual core CPU is also a nice plus which I hope will come to dominate the netbook, or any computing market for that matter. The performance just becomes that much smoother, especially when dealing with multi-tasking, or even multiple tabs when web browsing. Is it worth replcing your older netbook? Probably not. Most netbooks are quite capable of handling everyday tasks. But if you are in the market for one, or find yourself wanting a little more, you could hardly do worse than the 1015PN. That or take the next step and choose and ultralight notebook, maybe one with a CULV processor.
