Ok I can shed a little more light on the Platinum Awards. I was previously A Tim Horton's Employee from 2006-2017, whose location received this Platinum Award 3 separate years. You had to be within the top 10% of stores with both sales and also we would have the store graded every so often by a regional manager but the grading by the regional manager factored more heavily than the actual sales. I Received and actually still have the DVD player from 2007 though I think something died on the player if I remember correctly so it's non-functional. I also received an MP3 Player which I believe was from either 2006 or 2008 and a Coat but I can't remember what year that was for from the Platinum Awards. Yes everyone at the location received the reward but I believe the store owner decided how long you had to be at the store before you were eligible in receiving the platinum award gift.

I mean it's a netbook from 2010 (the badge says 2010), have you never seen an EeePC 701? All of the original netbooks had either bezels almost the same or smaller shells around the same size screen to have a smaller bezel but much worse battery life due to capacity and a keyboard too small for any reasonable use. I had an EeePC 701 at launch, the original that shipped with Linux, and a 1215N that would have been great if nvidia ION wasn't an utter joke that never worked correctly.

There's no excuse for how bad this thing is, and even if "it's all someone had", it's simply not functional or useful enough to justify even that.

This netbook made me remember back in 2010 when I was only 13 years old and I entered a country-wide drawing contest where the 1st prize was a netbook. I actually won, and the netbook was a Compaq CQ10-120LA, boasting a crazy 1 GB DDR2 RAM, 160 GB HDD, Atom N270 (1.6 GHz). As a kid, I was obsessed with Vista's UI so I was bummed when I powered it up and it had WinXP. But boy, I had a great time with that netbook!

Way back in 1999 I had something called the "IBM WorkPad z50." It seemed like a very new, innovative and inexpensive alternative to a full-blown laptop computer at the time. It ran one of the earliest versions of Windows CE and despite borrowing heavily from the IBM (and later Lenovo) ThinkPad design language, the build quality wasn't super and I always found it rather frustrating to use. In it's day, it was at least impressive looking to other people. I used it to take notes in college and got a lot of "mr fancy with a laptop computer over here" looks from others loll.

There were a few of them back in the day before android became mainstream, saw a few advertised on shopping channels with a built in cellular link so you could buy just the machine and be online (terrible way of doing it, like the shopping channels cared as they like their overpriced junk). Windows CE was used on a lot of stuff (so probably plenty of reference designs out there) and was probably fairly cheap to licence. Plus it's minimum system requirements and ARM processor compatibility would be perfect for something like this.

If you got a MacBook Pro or a PC Laptop in a similar price point from around that time, it is still a very usable computer. You definitely wouldn't want to play games or do video editing on it, and Teams/Zoom/etc calls won't be that great an experience, but for web browsing, word processing, spreadsheets, emails, etc; it is absolutely fine, and probably better than the cheapest laptops you can buy new in the shops today. That gives you an idea of how rubbish that was, even at the time.

Netbook is a misnomer if you asked me. It’s not fit for browsing the internet at all. Even the internet from way back then. The definitions of "notebook" and "netbook" should be swapped, this crap is only good for typing down notes. I don't see why you're making fun of the manual saying how to force shut down the device? Every manual has it, whether it is a laptop, prebuilt PC or a smartphone. It's just an important feature.

That bezel looks like the Unit was actually meant to house a slightly bigger display but for whatever reason (cost? availability?) they put in a smaller display and just filled up the free space with more bezel.......damn.

When I hear of Tim Hortons, I think of the 'if X commercial was honest' or 'if X was honest' over on the cracked KZbin channel. I saw someone mentioning about cracking this open and looking at the hardware, it is honestly a bit of a disappointment that you didn't try to figure out the hardware, like cpu or ram.

Oh lovely, one of those crappy netbook things that don't even deserve to be called computers lol Me and my brother were each gifted one of the many variants of these as a kid and the things literally couldn't even open KZbin, let along browse the internet (even back then). We took to calling them the 'crap editions' cause we had no idea what the 'CE' in Windows CE was supposed to mean other than that it was completely useless and unable to run anything. Many years back I found one of the things in my basement and tried to get it to run Linux, which it shockingly managed, albeit slower than an OG RPI 1. If I remember correctly the processer was some generic branded chip running at a whopping 300mhz, it took a whole 5 minutes to even boot. I don't remember the ram amount but it couldn't have been more than 128mb.
