Review: Sylvania's g Netbook Meso

,----[ Quote ]
| Although traditionally known for its electrical and lighting products, 
| Sylvania has also licensed its name to other manufacturers to expand its 
| product lines. The latest entry is in the rapidly growing market of netbooks.  
| 
| Produced by Digital Gadgets, which previously specialized in various mobile 
| electronics and accessories, Sylvania's g Netbook Meso is similar in many 
| ways to its more well-known competitors. Measuring 9-x-7-x-1.25 inches, it 
| weighs approximately 2.2 pounds without battery.    
| 
| [...]
| 
| Our test unit was loaded with Ubuntu Netbook Remix, but Windows XP Home 
| Edition is available as an option. The interface of the operating system is 
| nicely laid out and easy to navigate, even for Linux novices.

| Sylvania's G Netbook Meso offers a nice-looking screen and plenty of ports --

Invasion of the Netbooks: New systems from Asus, Acer, and Sylvania

,----[ Quote ]
| Sylvania g netbook: It's superlight and weighs less than 2 pounds. It's a lot
| like the original Eee PC, in that it's $399, and it has a 7-inch screen, plus
| a custom Linux operating system. It has a 30GB standard hard drive (good)
| and, like the HP 2133 Mini-Note, a 1.2GHz VIA C7 CPU, instead of Intel's Atom
| or even Celeron M (not so good).
