And they also have a review of the Samsung N140 (http://www.laptopmag.com/review/laptops/samsung-n140.aspx), the replacement to the NC10 that you're probably thinking of.

It's the same price as the Acer, has the same battery life, but: Has a much slower processor (a single core Atom, literally less than half as fast), has Win7 Starter Edition (which really is pretty crippled), has a smaller lower-res screen, doesn't have an HDMI output, and is only a little bit smaller and is only 6 ounces lighter.

It's hard to imagine a scenario in which the Samsung netbook would be the better buy here.
