OCZ Neutrino 10" DIY Netbook Review

[Apoptosis]

The OCZ Neutrino 10" Do-It-Yourself (DIY) netbook retails for under $239 after rebate and needs just a hard drive, memory modules and operating system installed. The Neutrino DIY netbook puts the control back in the hands of the consumer by allowing them to configure a feature rich netbook with the hardware they want.

"The OCZ Neutrino 10" DIY Netbook was a blast to work with as everything worked perfectly. Usually when doing reviews we encounter a million problems, but the Neutrino netbook was problem free. Not bad considering this is a DIY netbook that was running Windows 7 RC!"

Good review Nate. I haven't read much about these so I was curious to see how it did.

I find it interesting how expensive the thing got with the inclusion of a SSD and RAM. It jumped up to the same price as the Asus N10Jc-A1 which has an intergrated nVidia GPU w/ it's own RAM and a larger battery. True your build had 1G more RAM and a SSD but I don't know that it justifies the jump in cost.

right, but this is a DIY netbook and with an 80GB SATA HDD and 2GB DDR2 SO-DIMM you can be out the door for under $300

Just an update... The netbook still works great and I got the extended battery... Lasts 4+ hours while running wireless and surfing the internet... Not bad at all!
