In general, most netbooks are thin and light to begin with, but the Averatec N1200 is the thinnest and the lightest 10-inch netbook on the market now. Less than an inch thick and weighing just 2.2lbs, the stock N1200 features an Atom N450 processor, 160GB hard drive, 1GB of RAM expandable to 2GB, a webcam, and 802.11n Wi-Fi.

It runs on XP or Win 7 Starter and gives you just three hours per charge. Aside from being light and thin, it’s a nice looking Netbook. The N1200 is available in silver and black.
