        The Elonex Webbook is a mini laptop being promoted exclusively (in the UK) by The Carphone Warehose – for 'free' with a new two-year Orange broadband account, or separately for £249 with XP and £219 with Ubuntu. It's an SCC (Small Cheap Computer). It is not a gamer's rig! It is meant for web surfing and wordprocessing. I believe it has a Via Unichrome Pro chipset which includes the GPU. I would not expect the gaming performance to be sparkling, the thing can barely play mpegs.

          With that attitude, you'll go far (I hope).

          You asked what the GPU is. I told you.

          Bottomline:  Apart from a bit of trouble playing videos, the Webbook is a very reasonable SCC.

          its performance in all areas except hard drive is sluggish.

          Its not the prettiest or best performing netbook around but you can get it for free...

          The sample MPEG 4 video we played under QuickTime during battery life testing was jerky, with a low frame count, so you would need to watch in a smaller window to be able to view media comfortably.

          These snippets from reviews are more or less what me and my mate found when we tested the Webbook his sister got from Carphone Warehouse on an Orange deal. But since she wants it for using Open Office on trains etc to do WP and spreadsheets it doesn't matter about the rest of it.
