Optimized for Web-Safety and Sports a Sleek Durable Design
The Disney Netpal by ASUS is designed to be kid-friendly, both in terms of durability and content permissions.
It’s rugged and durable, with a spill-proof keyboard that protects against inadvertent liquid spills. The Disney Netpal by ASUS’ ShockShield data protection guards against data loss when the computer is subject to impact.
The Disney Netpal also allows parents to create a web-safe computing environment with many parental control options.
Parents can pre-select email correspondence options, browsers, the websites their kids visit and the programs they use. These permissions can also be scheduled on a calendar, providing parents with a convenient, automated means of granting access on the days and times that they choose.
Parents can also pull up data to determine where children spent time, and for how long, in the Disney Browser.
Additional websites can be added for access, but only if the parent approves and submits the request within the password-protected system.  |

Easy-to-use Kid-friendly Disney Desktop, Applications and Widgets
The Disney Desktop installed on the Disney Netpal by ASUS is an easy-to-use interface specifically tailored to kids, with an intuitive visual interface and instructions that make it easy for kids to operate the computer.
Right out of the box, the Disney browser launches numerous kid-friendly Disney websites for kids to explore.
The Disney Desktop features a 2D “gadget tray” that displays bold visual icons for easy access to applications.
Rounding off the Netpal’s fun, kid-friendly features are a collection of 15 easily-accessible widgets, including a stopwatch, digital memo pad, which inserts “reminder notes” on the Disney Desktop, and a calculator.
The Netpal is also designed with portability in mind. Its 8.9-inch screen in a compact and light weight chassis helps kids to easily carry the Netpal to the school or a play date.
With 5 hours of battery life, built-in webcam, microphone and wireless internet, the Netpal can operate hours on end without being plugged into the wall.
By choosing Windows XP Home as the platform for the Disney Netpal by ASUS, kids can still enjoy this ultra-mobile mini-notebook as they grow older. The familiar and widely compatible Windows XP Home allows for future software installs of programs such as Microsoft Office (not included) to help them with more advanced school projects.
Getting a head start in school has never been more fun and easier. The Disney Netpal by ASUS is the perfect computer for kids to learn and grow up with.

 my daughter's laptop February 14, 2010
Saira Diaz (Miami FL USA)
well its a good choice for a begginer, thou isnt that easy to use with little kids my daughter still prefer to use my laptop cause the screen resolution increases or decreases really easy n she doesnt know what to do to fix it (me neither),
n also all U can do is just browse the web... basically, so in short I think older kids need another type of computer, thou I did research before buying it, I would say buy a professional computer n use passwords all over n U will be happier....MOM of a 4 years old
Another Disney Marvel February 7, 2010
JD (CT, USA)
This product brings the wonders of technology to comfort of a girls bedroom at a such an early age. I believe this machine serves that purpose/need of educating them on the wonders of PC's & the thirst to learn. May be a bit pricey but it ended up being the best investment we made!
 Best adorable netbook February 1, 2010
Merridy Gersten (Lake Ariel, PA)
I purchased this for my five year old granddaughter who is quite savvy and knowledgeable with the computer. It is absolutely the real deal, exquisitely constructed and child (and grandma) friendly. She loves it, uses it all the time for games, pics, emails. It was worth every single cent. A++++ rating!
Christmas Gift! January 25, 2010
Loronce Corea Anderson (Los Angeles, CA United States)
I was looking for a netbook that my Disney-loving little girl would jump for joy over. Two days before Christmas, and I did not think I could get one in time. Amazon saved my bacon by having this awesome netbook for a great price, and superfast shipping! It arrived on Christmas Eve, completing the trifecta of netbook, mp3 player and bedroom set, all Disney! Thanks Amazon! This netbook is perfect for little girls, with all the protections and fun stuff available.
Well Done - as expected by Disney January 14, 2010
G. Jackson (Columbus, Ohio United States)
Purchased for my 8 year old daughter for her birthday. She always wanted a "real" laptop. Runs Windows XP for the Administrator and walled-off version designed for kids after the administrator sets them up. Can limit access to programs, day and time of use, and internet access. Since it's running Windows XP, it can grow with your child by removing the kid-limiting version and let them run in regular mode (although they may not want the Disney label as a teen). Highly recommended...
Word of causion, be careful not to purchase the ToyRus version as they replaced the 160Gig Hard Drive with a 16Gig Static Memory card and sell it for the same price!
