Editors' choice Eee PC 1008HA Seashell review

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

Acer Aspire One review

The Acer Aspire One arrives fashionably late to the mini laptop party, but it sashays in with flair. Available in either Linux or Windows XP versions, the One is attractive, lightweight and offers great performance for a low price. Does it spoil the netbook night for the Eee PC? Read more

Eee PC 1005HA Seashell review

Its performance is typical of a netbook, but Asus has found other ways to make the Eee PC 1005HA Seashell stand out from the crowd. While the 1005HA sports a good keyboard and an appealing design, the real star of the show is its fantastic battery life Read more

Samsung N110 review

One of Samsung's confusing brood of similar-sounding netbooks, the N110 has a good keyboard and an excellent trackpad. While not as thin as something like the HP Mini 1000, Samsung gets points for making a netbook with a long-life, six-cell battery that doesn't look like it has a kickstand Read more

Acer Aspire Timeline 1810T review

The 11.6-inch Aspire Timeline 1810T is a great alternative to a netbook, offering the same degree of portability with an added smattering of comfort. Its battery life isn't exceptional, but the 1810T is faster than most netbooks and offers a splendid keyboard that's remarkably easy to type on Read more

Eee PC 1005PE review

The 10.1-inch Eee PC 1005PE is the first netbook we've seen with Intel's next-gen Atom N450 CPU. This chip doesn't offer a massive performance boost over previous Atom offerings, but it does contribute to this system's excellent battery life, and the 1005PE is a handsome machine to boot Read more

RM Asus miniBook review

The RM Asus miniBook 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

Asus U1 review

It's tiny, it's shiny, it's got leather, it's got Vista -- what's not to love? The Asus U1 offers Core Duo performance in a petite package, along with a lovely 11-inch screen, an insignificant 1kg weight and the brand-new Windows OS. Graphics aren't a speciality though, and it is pricey 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
