Asus Eee PC 1000HE review
The attractive, 10-inch Eee PC 1000HE is the best netbook yet for frequent travellers, thanks to the most impressive battery life we've seen on any laptop. Benefiting from an excellent keyboard, the 1000HE is also a commendable performer, although integrated 3G would have made it even better Read more

Asus N10 review
We're quite smitten with the Asus N10. This ultraportable features an Nvidia GeForce 9300M graphics card and a healthy 2GB of RAM, as well as ample storage capacity. Yet the N10's size and price seem to indicate that it is in fact a netbook. Can this be? Read our review to see how the Asus N10 makes fusion magic Read more

Asus Eee PC 701 review
The Asus Eee PC 701 is one of the smallest laptops on the market. It's small enough to be mistaken for a hardback book, but despite its dimensions, it doesn't sacrifice performance. With a solid state hard drive and operating a Linux-based graphical user interface, it's the definition of an ultraportable Read more

Eee PC 1008HA Seashell review
Such is the beauty of the Eee PC 1008HA Seashell that it makes other netbooks look like they were cobbled together by blind goat herders. One of the thinnest and lightest netbooks on the market, it also boasts a truly excellent keyboard. We wish the battery was user-replaceable though Read more

Eee PC 1000 review
You can't go a day without seeing another Eee. This time, the 10.2-inch Eee PC 1000 appears on the mini laptop scene and it's 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 Read more

Advent 4211 review
The Advent 4211 is a less-expensive, re-badged alternative to the MSI Wind. It has the same core specification, so any differences between the two are merely cosmetic. If you want to jump on the netbook bandwagon, this is a fantastic starting point Read more

Eee PC 1005P review
The Eee PC 1005P is almost identical to the Eee PC 1005PE, but has a smaller hard drive and costs slightly less. Its next-generation Intel Atom N450 CPU doesn't provide a big performance improvement over its netbook predecessors, but its battery life is corking and it looks good too Read more

Samsung NC10 review
In a crowded netbook market, the 10-inch NC10 manages to stand out, thanks to impressive performance, good battery life, an excellent keyboard, and a fantastic, attractive design. We'd like to see high-speed Wi-Fi and 3G capability, but this is definitely not a netbook to be sniffed at Read more

MSI Wind review
With the huge success of Asus' Eee PC, the mini laptop market is suddenly crowded with imitators, but MSI's effort could well be one of the best so far. It looks gorgeous, it comes with Windows XP or Linux, plus it's very affordable and it's amazingly well-specced Read more

Asus Eee PC 900 Win (Windows XP) review
Asus is aware that many people are unfamiliar with Linux, and has kindly introduced the Eee PC 900 Win to offer users the comfort of Windows XP on the Eee. Physically identical to the Linux model, it's also the first machine to support a multi-touch mouse trackpad Read more
