On the surface, the Booktop seems to be just another Atom-based 10-inch minilaptop from a minor player. But while Gigabyte is better known for manufacturing mainboards than laptops, we were impressed that the M1022M managed to stand out from the crowd during our testing. In fact, it could be the...
Crave The Acer Aspire 5738PG. PC maker Acer is adding another pair of laptops to its Windows 7 laptop lineup. The two entries are a 15.6-inch touchscreen system, called the Aspire 5738PG; ...

Sony's first foray in to the world of Atom-powered laptops was the Vaio P-series Lifestyle PC, which sported a unique miniaturized design (about the same footprint as a standard business envelope), but was hampered by input issues (no touchpad) and the use of Windows Vista as its OS.

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.

When we heard that HP was making some big changes to its small business Netbook, we were worried. After all, the current version--the Mini 2140--is probably one of the better Netbook out there, thanks to an innovative keyboard (since adopted by HP's consumer Netbooks), full ExpressCard slot, and...
Review
When we first heard Lenovo had an IdeaPad S12 on its way, we were expecting the long-anticipated Nvidia Ion-packing version, which will include graphics power decent enough to accomplish HD video and even some demanding gaming. Instead, we got a configuration that includes an Intel Atom N270...

As prices keep dropping in the Netbook wars, staying competitive among a slew of me-too Atom-powered mini-notebooks is a challenge. While paying S$799 for a Netbook was common just a year ago, stripped-down yet still functional Netbooks today are now pushing S$699, led by Dell and its bare-bones...

As part of its inital return to Asia, Samsung offers the N120 for those who find Netbook keyboards too small and Netbook speakers too wimpy. This minilaptop takes a basic Netbook component set and jams in a keyboard that we'd normally find on a larger 12-inch laptop along with a 2.1-speaker sound...
Review Fujitsu is finally getting in on the growing Netbook trend with an entry aimed at the educational market. The M2010 includes many of the same features already common in the increasingly similar Netbook product landscape, so what differentiates it as an "education Netbook?" We were curious to find...
Review Even though the HP Mini 1000 is only a few months old, Hewlett-Packard was actually an early player in the Netbook field. The company's business system side came up with the Mini-Note 2133 in spring 2008, with a solid, brushed-metal chassis and a nearly full-size keyboard. Unfortunately, this...
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...
Review
Samsung's NC20 stands out from the crowd in two very important ways. First, it's one of only a handful of 12-inch Netbooks (the best-known example being Dell's Vista-addled Mini 12). Secondly, it's the first laptop we've tested with Via's Nano CPU, intended as an alternative to Intel's popular...
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...
