Gateway LT3104g/LT3105g (AMD Athlon 64 L110 Processor 1.2GHz, 2GB RAM)
Review In the battle for Netbook market share supremacy, Intel's Atom CPU stands nearly unchallenged despite a handful of offerings with AMD and Via CPUs. So it's surprising we found so much to like about the 11.6-inch Gateway LT3104g. This uses an AMD Athlon 64 L110 1.2GHz processor to provide a...

Dell Inspiron Mini 10v (Intel Atom N280 Processor 1.66GHz, 1GB RAM)
Review The "v" in the Dell Mini 10v's name is seemingly there to indicate value for thrifty Netbook shoppers. The system is in many ways hard to distinguish from its more expensive cousin and is one of the better sub-S$700 Netbook packages we've seen. It does, however, lack the high-end...
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...
Nokia Booklet 3G (Intel Atom Z530 1.6GHz processor; 1GB RAM)
Review Mobile phone maker Nokia is jumping into the Netbook pool with its recently announced Booklet 3G laptop, offering a premium-feeling system at a rock-bottom price, as long as you agree to a mobile data contract. The Booklet 3G is easily one of the nicest-looking Netbooks we've seen. Also a...
HP Mini 311 (Intel Atom N280 Processor 1.66GHz, 2GB RAM)
Review The Netbook wars have heated up with PC makers adding upscale features such as larger HD displays and faster low-voltage CPUs to systems in an effort to push prices past the usual S$499 to S$699 range. We've seen HD Netbooks from Sony and others, usually with prices closer to S$899, so...Another Eee PC joins the fray - Jul 14, 2009
Crave The Asus Eee PC family has a new member, and it's also the largest Netbook in its stable to date. The Eee PC 1101HA is the first Asus Netbook to sport ... Read story »
Asus Eee PC 1101HA (Intel Atom Z520 Processor 1.33GHz, 1GB RAM)
Review Asus is perhaps best known for virtually creating the Netbook phenomenon with its line of inexpensive Eee PCs. The company has subsequently done a good job of refining and expanding on the Netbook experience, with systems such as the slim Eee PC 1005HA and the touchscreen Eee PC T91. The...Notebook Price Watch - Nov 13, 2009

Samsung N310 (Intel Atom N280 processor 1.66GHz, 1GB RAM)
Review We've gotten to the point where mainstream Netbooks are a fairly rigid format. Slap together an Intel Atom N270 processor, 1GB of RAM, a 160GB hard drive, and a copy of Windows XP, and you've got your hands on essentially the same product sold by PC makers such as Dell, HP, and Acer. The...
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 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...Mini-laptop CPU showdown: Atom vs. Neo vs. Nano - Apr 15, 2009
Features Two new potential Atom killers have launched recently, each looking to steal some market share from Intel with variations on the Netbook theme. Read story »Jump to page: [1] 2
