1 Acer Aspire One

Acer Aspire One   Editors’ Choice

The Acer Aspire One is better than most netbooks. It's fantastic for anyone who wants a small, cheap machine on which to type and surf the Web. However, its battery life lets it down slightly.

2 Asus EeePC 1000H

Asus EeePC 1000H   Editors’ Choice

The Eee PC 1000 is a fabulous machine. It precariously straddles the line between netbook and ultraportable, but it's well equipped, well designed and great for those who need a laptop on the move.

3 Dell Inspiron Mini 9

Dell Inspiron Mini 9   Editors’ Choice

The Dell Inspiron Mini 9 is a prime example of the netbook form factor, and the best 8.9-inch one available.

4 ASUS EeePC 901

ASUS EeePC 901   Editors’ Choice

The Eee is now faster, looks nicer, and has better battery life. It's also heavier and the keyboard is still too small, but we like it. A lot.

5 Dell Latitude E6500

Dell Latitude E6500   Editors’ Choice

The Dell Latitude E is a glimpse into the future of laptops. With high expandability, configurable and a strong design, it should suit most corporate environments.

6 Asus M51Va

Asus M51Va

Asus' M51Va passes muster as one of the better laptops out there, and the Centrino 2 certification means you'll be up to date with the latest spec. If you're in the market for a mid-weight laptop, make sure to give this one a try.

7 MSI Wind

MSI Wind   Editors’ Choice

This is one of the best mini laptops so far -- it's comfortable to use, has a good display and it's affordable.

8 Toshiba Satellite A200

Toshiba Satellite A200

The A200 is a good all-rounder notebook with plenty to offer those on a budget. Just don't expect a performance powerhouse at this price.

9 Toshiba Satellite L300 (Celeron 2GHz, 1GB RAM)

Toshiba Satellite L300 (Celeron 2GHz, 1GB RAM)

    • Fujitsu LifeBook T1010

      Fujitsu LifeBook T1010

      The Fujitsu T1010 has tablet features and a somewhat striking price point, but the rest of the package feels a bit lifeless.

    • HP Pavilion dv7-1005tx

      HP Pavilion dv7-1005tx

      While everyone scrambles for the latest low-spec netbook, the DV7 takes the opposite route, promoting itself as the ultimate entertainment notebook. It's almost right, too.

    • Intel X-25M solid-state drive (80GB)

      Intel X-25M solid-state drive (80GB)

      Intel's X-25M solid-state drive enjoys several advantages over both conventional disk drives and other SSDs, including improvements to data throughput, boot time and notebook battery life. If you can forget about the cost, this is by far the fastest data drive available.

    • Asus Eee PC S101

      Asus Eee PC S101

      A premium netbook may sound like an oxymoron, but that is precisely what the Asus Eee PC S101 delivers with its stunning design and relative affordability.

    • HP Pavilion dv5-1050tx

      HP Pavilion dv5-1050tx

      The sleek design and good performance of the HP Pavilion dv5-1050tx makes it a solid contender, but don't plan on removing the power cord any time soon.
