The ultra-compact Netbook by ARCHOS

You might be looking for your first laptop, or looking for a complement to your existing notebook, or for a second computer in addition to you desktop. The ARCHOS 10s is just for you. Eye catching design, thin and light, it will let you surf the web, chat, access all your favourite social network sites and work in comfort. 

Ultra Thin

Where The ARCHOS 10s really excels is size. Ultra-thin, at just 0.866’’, it’s the thinnest Netbook on the market. Weighting hardly 2.2 pounds, it will fit perfectly into your briefcase or handbag.

The ARCHOS 10s was conceived to ensure the best combination of design and features: The casing is a mix of white and brushed-steel grey; The ARCHOS 10s is constructed from Aluminium and magnesium, which are key to ensuring lightness without hindering aesthetics.


Ultra Ergonomic

From an ergonomic standpoint, the ARCHOS 10s behaves just like a notebook. Its keyboard is probably one of the most intuitive and easy to use on the market. It features large keys making typing much easier. It’s an excellent mix of finesse and comfort, providing an excellent user experience.

The ARCHOS 10s features a 10.2’’ screen, an Intel® ATOM™ 1.6 Ghz with 1 GB of RAM, and 80GB1 hard disk storage. It runs Microsoft® Windows XP Home/Family edition, the most used operating system in the world. That is exactly all you need to carry out all daily activities. Chat, surf, work, safely.
And with ARCHOS Ready-to-Go Pack, ARCHOS offers a whole set of software and content accessible just in one click. Get an overview of it, click HERE.

Ready To Connect

We’re serious when we talk about mobility and connectivity. As with other ARCHOS products, the ARCHOS 10s will allow a 24/7 connection with its built-in WiFi and its USB-enabling 3G-ready capacities. And since Internet is likely to be the number ONE reason for you to buy a Netbook, we decided it was important that you could do it right out of the box. Microsoft™ Internet Explorer is included of course, and with it you can access 100% of the planet’s web sites, bookmark your favorite pages, and read all the RSS feeds directly from your browser.

Surf safe

You can do all of this safely with the virus protection we’ve selected for you. BitDefender™ Antivirus 2009 provides advanced proactive protection against viruses, spyware, phishing attacks and identity theft, without slowing down your PC. You will be safe to download, share and open files from friends, family, co-workers, and even total strangers.
You can also confidently purchase on any e-commerce site. Your identity, bank identification and certificates are protected from “phishing”. Phishing is identity theft on the Internet, today’s number one threat. Bitdefender™ will let you surf and buy in complete safety. Since your trust is of the utmost importance to us, we are obliged to uphold it. You’ve got 6 months of free use to decide if indeed it's protection you are looking for.

Share, Chat, Talk

If you already have a computer, or if the Internet has become so appealing to you that you need to buy your first machine, then Social Networking, Chatting, and other web 2.0 web sites are out there waiting for you. It’s about sharing and be connected to people. The ARCHOS 10s will just let you do that. With SKYPE™ already installed, all you have to do is log in to your existing account, and start talking or chatting with your buddies. SKYPE™ also allows you to SEE the person you’re talking to (if they have a webcam). With the built-in 1.3 megapixel buit-in webcam, you will be seen by them as well. Additionally, SKYPE™ offers you a voice mail system where people can leave you a message, as well as the ability to send SMS messages to portable phones.

And when you feel like writing rather than talking, you can still use SKYPE™ for instant messaging. With emoticons (those little signs that are so useful to express feelings) and editing status, you’re just one click away from your loved ones.

I chat therefore I am

Of course you may want to chat instead, and be in touch with all your friends and acquaintances, be they professional or personal. Among numerous instant messaging services available, ARCHOS have preselected Windows Live Messenger for you, so that you join the millions of users all around the globe.

Protect your kids

Your ARCHOS 10s is family friendly. You can feel safe letting your kids use it thanks to Parental Filter™. Parental Filter is a very powerful parental control solution, and was awarded Best Parental Control application in 2008 by Action Innocence
It’s the only solution that incorporates all aspects of both the computer and Internet use. Using it, you won’t have to worry about all the scary things you see on TV about child protection.
