LG’s newest offering, the LG Xnote E200 notebook PC is powered by 2.0 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Processor and it offers 12.1-inch WXGA TFT display, Intel Pro/Wireless 3945ABG connection, ATI Radeon Xpress 1250 graphics hardware and 20x DVD Super Multi Dual Layer Writer.The E200 has a simple uniform design, there is a checkering pattern through its black cover (it is also available with a pink cover) and is silver on the inside. The top has a nice iPod Nano glossy look to it, and unfortunately like the iPod Nano it is prone to scratches. It has a latchless lid which carefully shuts without too much force. The build is nice and sturdy, but not as solid as a laptop from the ThinkPad series. The laptop itself is a bit thick for a 12.1” laptop, but this allows for it to take more punishment than a thinner one would. You can choose whether you want to make it lighter by inserting a plastic travel weight instead of having the DVD drive in — making it 0.2Kg lighter.
