Last year, Intel’s Atom processor ruled the netbooks market. This year the Via Nano processor is set to make a splash starting with Samsung’s upcoming netbook, the NC20.
Through a leaked manual posted on the company’s UK website, Samsung confirmed that the NC20 would have a 12-inch screen and sport a 1.3GHz Via Nano processor. While lightweight, the screen size raises questions on whether the NC20 is really a netbook or a mini-notebook.
The NC20, which is likely to be out next month, will also come with Windows XP, 1GB of RAM, 160GB of hard drive storage and weigh 3.3 pounds. The netbook is likely to be priced at around $500—which will make it more expensive than most of its peers.
