Hey Woz,

Can you do something for me?

Since your netbook has the Atom processor. I want to compare the flash performance of the Atom netbook.

Look at your Task Manager, make sure that the CPU usage is 0% or nearly 0%.
Go to miniclips.com
Monitor the CPU usage for 1 minute.

Tell me what is the average CPU usage.

Thanks.

CPU was idling at 4% > 6%
Went to miniclips.com
Lowest figure was 45% (only for an instant)
Highest figure was 90% (only for an instant)

It jumped up and down continuously but more so between 60% and 70% so I guess 65% is a reasonable figure.
My connection is very slow at the moment if that makes any difference.
I will test again tomorrow if the connection gets better

All the best, woz of oz
