Jolicloud updates compatibility with Pinetrail Netbooks21:40 12/02/2010, Chris Guthrie, jolicloud, Netbook news, Netbook Reviews
I met up with a couple members of the Jolicloud team while I was at CES and one of the follow up questions I asked them after the event was, "When will we see support for the new Netbooks using Intel Atom Pinetrail processors?" They told me 'soon' and sure enough a few weeks later the update is now live. For those of you that haven't tested out the Jolicloud OS yet I suggest you give it a go. For those of you not rocking a brand new Netbook using Pinetrail be sure to check out the compatibility chart first to make sure your Netbook will work with Jolicloud before you get too excited (odds are it will).

I'm interested in seeing how many people are using the Jolicloud OS on their Netbook so feel free to respond to the poll posted below:

Note: There is a poll embedded within this post, please visit the site to participate in this post's poll.
If you're already using Jolicloud on your Netbook simply go to 'My Jolicloud' and click the 'Update All' button and then reboot your machine.

Here you can find cheap Netbooks for under $300 using the new Intel Atom N450 Pinetrail processor. Or just be on the lookout for any Netbook deals posts I share. I usually write them late Friday or early Saturday.
