CULV is coming up in the manufacturer’s mind in a big way, as they serve big in saving energy, giving more battery life – ideal for netbooks. Their performance is also much better than the usual N270/N280s. Still, if you don’t need the extended battery life, dual core processor, extra RAM and hard disk space and Windows 7, you can still pick up an Acer Aspire 1410 with Windows Vista for about $150 less.
