A sub-US$500 ThinkPad with colors? Now we've seen everything

We honestly never thought this day would come. Since 1992, ThinkPads have been well-known for their durability, security and premium pricing. The "black bento box" look also became synonymous with the premium ThinkPad range.

Asus' new Eee PC Netbook packs Nvidia Ion and dual-core Intel Atom

Hot on the heels of the well-regarded HP Mini 311, Asus has moved the Netbook bar forward by taking a 12-inch Netbook chassis and including both Nvidia's Ion graphics and a dual-core version of Intel's Atom processor (called the Atom 330).

While still small, the 1201N fits in a full-size keyboard and a 250GB hard drive (plus access to 500GB of online storage space). The system comes with Windows 7 Starter and 2GB of RAM. Asus claims the 6-cell battery should last up to five hours, similar to what we've seen in other Eee PC models.

For S$3,299 (US$2,373.21), you get a unit decked out with a 1.4GHz Core 2 Duo SU9400 chip, 4GB RAM and a 128GB SSD running on Windows 7 Home Premium, not to mention that cool heat-sensing strip.

The 1.44kg Dell Adamo XPS is available in Singapore, Malaysia, India and Australia and can be ordered via Dell's online store.
