Averatec N2700 is the missing link in the struggle for computer manufacturers and software companies to compete in a netbook world.

Averatec has created a full-featured notebook that weighs and costs only a tad more than a netbook. Averatec N2700 is a 12.1 inch laptop with a dual core Pentium processor, 4GB of RAM and toting a 250GB hard disk, along with an onboard DVD±RW drive. All this for a four-and-a-quarter-pound package total.
