The eMachines eM250 Series Model KAV60 netbook which sold at WalMart for $228 (bit.ly It looks very similar to the Acer Aspire One AOD250. Starting at 5 minutes into the video I demo the Jolicloud netbook OS I installed from jolicloud.com. It installed on this netbook without one problem and runs pretty fast! This machine’s Model Number is EM250-1162

@PoetikkApoztle
Yes, it does have Wi-Fi.
Does this have wifi?
I just bought today my emachines 250 and replaced the 160gb harddrive with a SSD drive. Runs Linux very well =)
@zabet04240 Up to 2GB
@sirusgraff3 Congratulations! Have fun!
I jusr ordered mine online from Best Buy it was a total of like 250 but no more than that it look really good though thanx for this review! Cant wait till mine comes!
@ThroughMattsLens Windows 7
@klkenyon2 Probably so.
@robbylv222 I don’t think so.
@zabet04240 2GB
How many gb or ram can it have
Can you play HD movies? 720P??
windows 7 starter… wich is not bad at all
)
btw, todays netbooks have Nvidia ION chipset, wich has some advantages (it features a CUDA capable GPU) over intel GMA.
It will run much faster with linux (Ubuntu netbook remix, Kuki, etc.).
I’m really impressed by the multitouch touchpad, nice feature.
Does it run gta sa or 4
what OS does it come with?
@MrSabogaloid Yes.
does this unit has wifi?
I bought one today only a 160Gb drive though. I am very impressed, it runs xp with all the bells and whistles very well indeed.
The quality of the keyboard and case is far sturdier than the compaq cq60 i have next to me although still only 1″ thick, 10.1″ wide and weighing less than 1.2Kg
I think i might put linux mint on the main partition but other than that im very impressed with this little purchase.
@6shutyourhole6 It will probably run faster with Windows 7
the one i bought is win xp…if i upgrade to windows 7 is it gonna make the performance of the netbook slower? like lagging and stuff?
$125? Wow! It doesn’t get any better than that!
I got my wife one of these after Christmas on clearance for 125. Was super happy with it. Super nice system.
So you would recommend this netbook?
I would only be using it for Internet purposes.
@omx15 Yes. It does support Flash.
