Lenovo S10-2 10-Inch White Netbook - 6 Cell Battery Review

Lenovo S10-2 10-Inch White Netbook - 6 Cell Battery
I purchased my Lenovo S10-2 in April ‘09. I’ve found it to be surprisingly useful. At home I use it extensively to surf the net and keep up on email. I no longer carry my larger laptop back and forth to work. I’ve loaded the little S10 with all of the same software as I use on my primary computer (MS Office Professional, Visio, Project, Adobe, etc.). It’s only a little slow to load the applications and works great in a pinch. I’d make it my primary computer, but the screen is too small and scrolling back and forth all day can be tiring. Still, it’s very handy for travel or when I don’t want to carry my larger laptop. It fits easily in my carry on and add about the same weight as a book. Keep in mind you’ll need also carry an external drive if you want to watch DVDs.

Acer AOD250-1517 10.1-Inch Ruby Red Netbook - Up to 9 Hours of Battery Life Review

Acer AOD250-1517 10.1-Inch Ruby Red Netbook - Up to 9 Hours of Battery Life
Bought this little laptop few weeks ago I like it very much.
It is so light, Love it.
I bring my laptop with me all the time so to have a light one was a must. I like the fact that also the power cord is light.
No issue with the smaller keyboard - I had a 14inches before and I didn’t notice a huge difference. Only thing I miss is the “go to end of line” button.
It boots pretty fast which is nice.
The internet seems to be a bit slow to load but I haven’t been able to figure out if it is a connection problem where I am or the pc.
I have to say that when you are using it you don’t feel like the screen is small (they have this nice function of the scroll padd that allows you to zoom in and out of the page very very easily) but if you have a 14 inch nearby all of a sudden you feel like that screen is enormous :)
All in all I think it was a good buy for the price.
the battery really lasts a long time - I got up to 7 hours with Open office, pdf, internet and skype working.

Toshiba Mini NB205-N230 (NB200 series) 10.1-Inch Black Onyx Netbook - 9 Hours of Battery Life (Windows 7 Starter) Review

Toshiba Mini NB205-N230 (NB200 series) 10.1-Inch Black Onyx Netbook - 9 Hours of Battery Life (Windows 7 Starter)
The net book works great and satisfied my requirement to get on the internet on the go and a fairly large amount of memory for a net book. The Windows 7 starter operating system is a little limiting especially when setting up networks to transfer large amounts of data between the netbook and my desk top but acceptable work arounds are available. I will probably upgrade the operating system but hate spending the extra money. The battery life is excellent. The screen is excellent. The video is excellent. The volume of the speakers are really bad and can just barley be heard in a very quiet environment. In a slightly noisy environment, such as outside or in a car there is no chance of hearing the audio. Head phones or external speakers are required. This might be a problem with my specific netbook since it is so bad. Amazon purchase was great, delivery good condition and fast.

Samsung NC10-11GP 10.2-Inch Pink Netbook - 6 Cell Battery Review

Samsung NC10-11GP 10.2-Inch Pink Netbook - 6 Cell Battery
Basically the worst things about this product is the speakers which is underneath the computer itself. Without headphones it at best can give you an impression of what going on but nothing more than barely getting by. I don’t mind using headphones but have found a few applications I’d rather not like when multiple people are needing to listen.

Also this product all of a sudden will open a new browser or window or increase/decrease the size of the screen. Often this happens when typing fairly fast but I’m sure I’m not hitting a key in error, it’s just a strange glitch.

ASUS Eee PC 1000HA 10.1-Inch Pearl White Netbook - 7 Hour Battery Life Review

ASUS Eee PC 1000HA 10.1-Inch Pearl White Netbook - 7 Hour Battery Life
Although this netbook seems to be the oddball of the Eee PC line (seems it was more or less a quick pitstop between the darlings of the series - the 901 and the 1000HE/1005HA), it has performed more than admirably for my uses. I adopted this netbook after my wife “acquired” (read: borrowed and never gave back) my Eee PC 901 running Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.04. If you are a fan of F/LOSS, I think you will be quite pleased with this netbook. For the price, enough time has passed that the most recent kernels will fully support the hardware on this netbook in the majority of cases. I have run Crunchbang, Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.04 and 9.10, as well as the recent Fedora 12 Xfce Spin on this netbook with little to no hand configuration required. And although Pearl White might be considered a less “masculine” color, it is also a less fingerprint prone color as well so you don’t end up feeling the need to wipe it down with your microfiber cloth every five minutes. Bottom line is that it is the same sturdy, reliable hardware and build that you have come to know and love with the Eee PC series coupled with the maturity and reliability to run most modern Linux distributions with confidence, if you choose to do so. Very happy with mine and have not even considered shopping around for a new netbook despite new advances and my usual propensity to hop on the latest and greatest technology. Highly recommended if you are a GNU/Linux fan.

Toshiba Mini NB205-N325BL 10.1-Inch Royal Blue Netbook - 9 Hours of Battery Life (Windows 7 Starter)
Great size! The portability makes this computer easy to use anywhere, anytime. It takes a little getting used to looking at such a small screen. I like the netbook design and Windows 7, but HATE the fact that it’s only Windows 7 Starter. Still, I’d rather have Windows 7 Starter than XP. Battery life seems very good.
