Reviews

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

    HP offers a premium version of its Mini 1000 while keeping the price down, making the Mini 2140 the netbook to beat.

  • Sony Vaio VGN-P15G (Intel Atom Z530 processor 1.6GHz, 2GB RAM)

    Sony's upscale Atom-powered Lifestyle PC has the components of a cheaper machine, but the design of a more expensive one. The end result will be a useful travel PC for some and a conversation piece for others.

  • 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.

  • Lenovo IdeaPad U110

    Lenovo's bright red foray into the ultraportable consumer space is for the most part a successful one, despite a few missteps.

  • Apple Time Capsule (1TB) Network Storage

    Apple's hybrid 802.11n wireless router/networked hard drive offers some powerful data backup features for Mac owners, but Windows users and those who demand speed from their 802.11n network will be disappointed.

  • Lenovo IdeaPad Y510

    Lenovo's Y510 represents the company's best crack at the consumer notebook market to date, but there's no doubting this system's ThinkPad heritage.

  • HP Pavilion tx1000

    HP's first Vista-based laptop, the Pavilion tx1000, is an unusual but largely successful hybrid, combining a tablet design with an entertainment-focus.
