Gigabyte M912X (M912X M912V) Specifications and information

Gigabyte M912X alternatives

Using the Intel low-cost notebook platform, this could be a very good value challenger to other touchscreen convertibles like the VyeS37 and the Flybook V5. The battery capacity is good, the high resolution touchscreen, ExpressCard34 slot and 2.5" hard disk set it apart from the low-end netbooks that are available.

High end version of the Gigabyte M912 range. Available mid-Sept 2008. Also available with Windows Vista as the M912V.

At 222 Euros for a top-end netbook platform, this Meego edition saves around 60 Euros over the Windows Home 7 Starter version, a differential that's larger than the cost of the Windows 7 Starter License. 2GB of RAM is also included (the WIndows 7 version comes with only 1GB) which hints that this device may be either subsidised or a loss-leader for Acer.
