10.2” widescreen LED display
The NC10’s 10.2” widescreen display is optimised to deliver a seamless visual experience on netbook and by using LED technology means that the screen is thinner, up to 33% brighter, and uses much less power than traditional LCD screens. Even the durability of the system is better, because there are fewer breakable parts.
anti-bacterial keyboard
Uses Silver Nano Technology to coat the keyboard with incredibly small, nano-sized silver ion powder, which makes it impossible for bacteria to live and breed. So, 99.9% of bacteria are successfully eliminated within 24 hours and the netbook remains bacteria free for even longer, creating a more hygienic personal computing environment.
