    How come all of a sudden ultra-portable notebooks are all called Netbooks.

    Depends on 3 things, price, weight and battery life... if all of those things are good, then I'd be tempted...

    OT but why the hell wasnt a low power Core 2 on the cards to start with rather than flood the mrket with this Atom crap.

    4GB of RAM is a bit out there isn't it? Anyway, netbooks are a mess, they should be building down towards smartphones, not up to laptops.

    It always was - CULV isn't exactly new (the original 7" EEE was essential a CULV Celeron), but it costs more than Atom. Atom was specifically developed to target a very low price point. That means that if OEMs can persuade you to pay £400 for an Atom-based system they make more profit then charging you £500 for a CULV-based system.

    I'll buy a CULV based netbook-sized Timeline if they do one with the discreet Radeon graphics for < £500. Otherwise, I'll be waiting on Congo, I think
