Introducing Dell’s £200 netbook!

The Dell Mini 10v, a stripped down version of Dell’s 10 inch netbook, has gone on sale in the UK, and it comes in at just £199, undercutting other netbooks by a triple figure sum!

Netbook prices have been getting out of hand lately, with the Samsung N310 coming in at £399 for no apparent reason, but Dell has made a very smart move the other way with the release of the Dell Mini 10v netbook.

It’s a pared down version of the popular Dell Mini 10 netbook which ditches the 160GB hard drive for 8 gigs of flash memory, slightly lower 1024×576 resolution and a 1.6GHz processor. And by switching from Windows XP on the entry level model to Linux, Dell has brought the price of the Dell Mini 10v netbook in at under £200, a full £100 cheaper than the Dell Mini 10.

You can still bag a Windows XP version of the Dell Mini 10v with 160GB hard drive for £279, but if all you want to do is jump online and word process, there’s little reason to upgrade. The Dell Mini 10v netbook is on sale now, so get your order in stat!
