The Libretto Reimagined

"It’s hard not to compare the Toshiba Libretto W100 to the ill-fated Microsoft Courier or the equally ill-fated original concept designs for the next-generation OLPC XO Laptop. But the Libretto W100 is something different. The computer runs Windows 7, has an Intel ULV processor, and has a starting price of nearly $1100."

The original Libretto brings back fond memories for me of days gone by; where computers were basic tools to do word processing and spreadsheet.  How things have changed!  The reimagined Libretto does look pretty, and I think the concept has some merit, but I wuestion the choice of a 7" display.  There is a reason why manufacturers started offering 8.9", 10" and 11" netbooks.  Unless one eats six pounds of carrots a day, a 7" display at a decent resolution is a test worse than an optometrist.  With a screen that small, Windows 7 is probably not the best operating system to go with.
