I am purchasing a HP Mini 10.1" Intel Atom N270 1.6GHz Netbook, with windows xp sp3, anything I should know or do(hacks?)?

DO - Get yourself a version of Linux. It will run far faster on your netbook. If Linux isn't your thing then..... DON'T - Install antivirus.

Especially if you have a Solid State Harddrive. Antivirus normally impedes performance a little bit, but with a Solid State Drive, it can grind you to a halt. DON'T - Keep many things running in the background.

DON'T - Try to play high-end games. DO - Use it for what it was meant. Netbooks are a GREAT tool!

But they are a tool. DO - Add more RAM if you have the space. The Atom is a tiny processor with limited power, if there's space for RAM, use it.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
