Lenovo IdeaPad S10-2 (Intel Atom N280 Processor 1.66GHz, 1GB RAM)

Review Lenovo's IdeaPad S10 Netbook was one of the most popular budget minilaptops for good reasons: Its business-friendly tools, ExpressCard slot, and reasonable price all made it a great option for consumers or corporate users. Now, another revision is available that effectively replaces the...

Asus UL30 (Core 2 Solo ULV SU3500 Processor 1.4GHz, 2GB RAM)

Review Whether CULV laptops will ever fully find a spot between the Netbook world and the full-featured notebook world, they are most definitely a category that's growing everyday. Dropping an optical drive and adding a low-voltage processor alongside a long-lasting battery are the trends of 2009,...

Asus Eee PC 1000HE (Intel Atom N280 Processor 1.66GHz, 1GB RAM)

Review Asus deserves credit for practically inventing the Netbook market with its original 7-inch Eee PC, and its 9- and 10-inch follow ups. In the year-and-a-half since then, other companies have done much to add functionality (ExpressCard slots on the Lenovo S10) and refine the design (big keyboard on...

Asus Eee PC 1008HA (Intel Atom N280 Processor 1.66GHz, 1GB RAM)

Review One inescapable current Netbook trend is falling prices. With a perfectly serviceable S$699 10-inch system coming from Dell and subsidized Netbooks from mobile phone companies, the current standard of S$699 for a nicely equipped minilaptop is starting to look like the maximum the market will...

Asus Eee PC 1005HA (Intel Atom N280 Processor 1.66GHz, 1GB RAM)

Review We were very fond of the previous version of Asus' Eee PC, the 1008HA, which represented a radical design change from the boxy Eee PCs of the past. But its high-end (for a Netbook) price, at S$798, slipped just over the line for many, and its non-removable battery wasn't as long-lasting as we've...

Asus Eee PC S101 (Intel Atom N270 Processor 1.6GHz, 1GB RAM)

Review With the basic parameters of what makes a Netbook fairly set in stone, it's becoming harder than ever for a new model to stand out from the crowd, as evidenced by largely identical recent Netbooks from Dell, Lenovo, and HP--though the HP Mini 1000's impressively large keyboard was a plus. To...

Asus N10 (Intel Atom N270 Processor 1.6GHz, 1GB RAM)

Review Almost every Netbook we've seen to date has featured the same basic setup: The Intel Atom N270 CPU, 1GB of RAM, and Windows XP. We're even seeing less difference in screen size, as most vendors have settled on a 9- or a 10-inch screen. Really, the only differentiation between Netbook...
