When will netbooks come with Windows 7 and Nvidia Ion chip ?
There are already netbboks based on the ION platform. Not available in SG yet, though, like the Lenovo Ideapad S12. Netbooks with Win 7 will come out when Win 7 comes out.
OEM manufacturers already has the go-ahead from MS to ship Windows 7, no idea why it's taking so long for them to ship out their stuffs...
Retail need to wait till October 2009.
just fyi, most current netbooks with windows vista basic/ xp will not be given free upgrades to win 7 (:
XP - no free upgrades
Vista - Yes, free upgrades, provided the Vista OS is bought from July 2009 onwards. Can't recall if it applies to Vista Basic.
Windows 7 Premium is listed in some Sim Lim Shop Pricelists at S$225 now.
So, will this mean that netbooks with Windows 7 and Nvidia Ion Chip will be
available in October too ?

Vista Basic isn't included. Home Premium, Business, Ultimate will have upgrades. I wonder if Enterprise also have :P
