Reviews

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

You'll pay a bit more for the privilege, but the Asus N10 is unique because of its discrete, switchable graphics and extra ports.
Asus Eee PC S101

Asus packs the same basic components found in other Netbooks into a stylish, slim chassis for a modest premium in price, with some unfortunate keyboard-layout compromises.
HP Mini 1000

HP may have arrived late to the consumer netbook game, but by lifting the generous keyboard from last year's business-oriented model, the Mini 1000 easily joins the category's top tier.
Dell Studio 17

The Dell Studio 1735 is a decent laptop which is best for multimedia and casual gaming, but the glossy, hi-res screen isn't suited to general usage.
Apple iMac (20-inch, 2.4GHz)

With its super-elegant new design and a strong configuration, Apple's new iMac competes with the PC desktop market better than perhaps any previous Mac to date.
Apple MacBook (2.0GHz, 13-inch, black)

With the MacBook, Apple has corrected a handful of the iBook's shortcomings, hit a reasonable price point, and delivered a laptop that makes a great compromise between size and portability.
Dell Inspiron 9400

The Dell Inspiron 9400 packs a solid set of multimedia features, and when configured with Intel's Core Duo processor, it has enough power to speed through virtually any task, from editing video to playing games.
Acer TravelMate 8200

From a performance perspective, the fast Acer TravelMate 8200 does Intel's new Core Duo processor proud -- but its mediocre battery is hardly the five hours Intel promised.
