The specs say this has 2GB RAM and 32GB flash storage. The Win7 Windows folder is 40.6GB or 43.7GB (in decimal disk drive lingo). Almost 50% larger than the total available storage on the Pendo. What has gone away on Win10 to make it fit? Is there anything at all left for the user?

Sorry, looking around it appears this item is 'badge engineered' for the
Australasian market. I'm sure there will be an equivalent branding for
the US. This thing was basically a disposable item at under AUD350
(about USD245).

Basic specs are here (though it is W10):

An example of similar style 'name brand' kit (though the pendo has a
higher res screen and a different CPU) might be something like this:

Thanks, David.  Do you have a link to the Pendo?  I can't find it on Amazon.

I bought a cheap Pendo 11.6" Flip 'convertible' netbook so that we had a
W10 machine in the house in case of customer questions.


Tina,

I can't say whether something like the Pendo  would be of use to you,
but if you're a windows user, something like this may allow you to do
what you need, it's all solid-state and only has a 32G onboard drive,
but has a MicroSD slot. Also has a couple of USB ports.
