OCZ Technology is jump­ing into the net­work mar­ket. But it’s not just any old net­book; it’s what­ever you want it to be! The Neutrino will sport a 10.1″ TFT LCD with a 1024 x 600 pixel for­mat. The back­light is of course LED. The chipset is Intel’s 945GSE and the CPU is Intel’s Atom N270 run­ning at 1.6GHz. There’s a 1.3MP web­cam, WiFi and a 2-cell battery.

So where’s the DIY part? The DIY parts are: hard drive, RAM, mult­card reader, and OS. The price of $269 sounds kind of expen­sive con­sid­er­ing you have to add all of these com­po­nents. For instance, you could get a bone stock Inspiron Mini 10 for just $399.
