Acer Aspire 8930G (Core 2 Duo T9400 Processor 2.53GHz, 4GB RAM)

Review The original Acer Aspire 8920G was the very first 18-inch laptop we had a chance to review, and the follow-up Acer Aspire 8930G is similar in terms of its essentials, with only a handful of component upgrades. The display has the same native resolution as a 1080p HDTV. Coupled with a unique...

Nintendo DSi

Review The DSi is the third iteration of Nintendo's popular dual-screen handheld gaming system. It boasts a number of new features--twin cameras and audio playback, for example--that make it more of a personal entertainment device than a mere handheld games machine. Editors' note:This review is based...

Samsung R470 (Core 2 Duo T6500 processor 2.16GHz, 2GB RAM)

Review Before Samsung left the Asia-Pacific market in 2006, the position of its laptops was clearly aimed at the lifestyle set who don't mind paying a premium for slim and sleek notebooks. This was fine back when even budget laptops cost over S$1,800 and were considered a significant investment. Fast...

Canon Pixma MX850

Review The Pixma MX850 is a small, versatile multifunction printer suited to a small office looking for a cheap, do-it-all machine. It offers a broad range of features and reasonable document print quality, but don't expect top-quality color prints. Editors' note: This review is based on tests done by...

Panasonic DMP-BD60 Blu-ray player

Review The Panasonic DMP-BD60 is a capable and likeable Blu-ray player. We love the simple styling even if it is unexciting, and we think this is likely to be a really popular machine. A USB port and SD card reader add to the features, but this kit is first and foremost about getting Blu-ray movies onto...

Apple MacBook Pro (Core 2 Duo processor 2.26GHz, 2GB, 13.3-inch TFT)

Review Radically overhauled last year, Apple's MacBook line of laptops moved to aluminum construction, edge-to-edge glass over LED displays, and oversize multitouch trackpads (with the exception of the lone S$1,589 white plastic model). The latest round of updates is more of a refinement than another...

HP Mini 2140 (Intel Atom N270 Processor 1.6GHz, 1GB RAM)

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...

Samsung NC20 (Via U2250 processor 1.3GHz, 1GB RAM)

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...

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...

Acer Aspire 3935 (Core 2 Duo P7450 Processor 2.13GHz, 3GB RAM)

Review It's easy enough to find a thin, sexy 13.3-inch laptop such as the Dell Adamo or Apple MacBook. Finding one for less than S$2,000 is a little tougher as the base model aluminum MacBook starts at S$2,888 (yes, there's a S$1,598 plastic model, too). And HP's recent Pavilion dv3 is certainly...

Gigabyte T1028M Touch Note (Intel Atom N270 processor 1.6GHz; 1GB RAM)

Review Taiwan-based Gigabyte is better known for producing PC motherboards, and this attempt of theirs at penetrating the touchscreen tablet Netbook market has produced a feature-packed product. At S$999, the unit is value-for-money for those looking for a Netbook that also doubles as a convertible...

Gigabyte M1022M Booktop (Intel Atom N280 processor 1.66GHz; 1GB RAM)

Review 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...

BenQ JoyBook Lite U121 Eco (Intel Atom Z530 Processor 1.6GHz, 1GB RAM)

Review With the wide range of Netbooks surging into the market, along with the second-generation Atom platform expected early next year, vendors are finding way to differentiate their offerings in the market. HP collaborated with famous fashion designers such as Vivienne Tam and Studio Tord Boontje to...
