Suzuki Neutron netbooks get the Atom Pine Trail treatment

It's been a while since I've even thought about the Suzuki Neutron line of netbooks. But it looks like Suzuki has two new models out, both with Atom N450 processors. The company had previously released a 10 inch model with an Atom N270 CPU and a 7 inch convertible tablet with an Atom Z520 processor.

The new Suzuki Neutron 1002 QNi has a 10.2 inch display, a 1.66GHz Intel Atom N450 processor, 1GB of RAM, and a 160GB hard drive. It supports 802.11b/g WiFi and Bluetooth 2.1 and has a 1.3MP webcam and 5 hour battery.

The Suzuki Neutron 1003 QNi is basically th esame machine with a few minor differences: It has 2GB of RAM and a 250GB hard drive.

There's no word on the operating system or other components, but I suspect that the Neutron 1002 QNi will ship with Windows 7 Starter Edition, while the 1003 QNi may have Windows 7 Home Premium, Linux, or another operating system, since Microsoft generally doesn't allow PC makers to install Windows 7 Starter Edition on machines with 2GB of RAM.
