The samsung n140 handon. Is it worthy?

Desire fulfilled. I’ve tested the samsung n140 netbook and i liked it. Read that like the ‘i kissed a girl, and i liked it’ song. The machine looks great, shiny black with the samsung label placed at the center of the cover neatly and no other doidos. Until that part, its awesome. Open the lid to reveal a well spaced keyboard. Impressive for the netbook. So i got down to work, the netbook is a wINDOW xp box with an atom processor as guessed, and a gb of ram. That’s already much for the xp box to do day to day computing for a kawaida person. The screen is 10inch or so and i got used to it immediately. The box is light, there’s no big deal picking it like a large phone and moving it around. Touchpad is very tiny so i was using a usb laser mouse. Adds up to the whole nice experience because i place the usb on my thigh or head and work goes on. Simple tasks like pdf reading, image editing with paint, taking screenshots and word was fine. The display size for word was wanting. I prefer large monitors to display multiple pages. The sd slot didn’t work, maybe a driver thing but the 3usb ports served fine for the task i.e. Phone, mouse, and flashdisk. Watching a movie on the flashdisk using classic media player was faultless and there were no delays while showing full screen. I was sold upto that point. Then came the devil, was she wearing prada? I don’t know. The tool had no wi-fi. Pretty useless netbook. Who in his right mind buys lame hardware like this? But there was bluetooth to use ur phone as a modem and still move around freely without losing the sometimes crapy network service in Kenya. I give the netbook a 6 out of 10 overall.
