Gateway LT2024u 10.1-Inch Red Netbook - 3 Hours of Battery Life (Windows 7 Starter) Review

So far so good, nice key board, easy to used. BESHURE to make a restore disc. The first time after the set up make shure you type in slowly your password, you may hit another key like I did or it just locked me out. You have to log in everytime, I don’t know if you can by-pass the log in like the larger lap tops or it maybe windows 7. It took a friend and some reading to restore (2hrs), no support number for Gateway (I could not find one, @#$%%^). Over all from what I know pretty good for one day, need to play with it some more.

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

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.

Toshiba Mini NB205-N325BL 10.1-Inch Royal Blue Netbook - 9 Hours of Battery Life (Windows 7 Starter) Review

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.

Dell Mini 9 Inspiron 910 Laptop Notebook (Black) - Intel® Atom N270 1.6GHz, 1GB DDR2, 8GB HD, 8.9″ WSVGA, Integrated Webcam, Windows XP Home Review

I’ve been looking for something like this for years to chronicle my motorcycle trips.
I was loathe to give up saddlebag space to a full-size laptop and worried that the heat, dust and vibration of motorcycle travel would kill a laptop with a conventional hard disk drive.
So I started out with travel journals, but I had to wait until I got home to blog my trip stories.
Then, five years ago, I tried blogging from the road with a Palm Treo 300. It was barely adequate. I stepped up to a Treo 600, and then the 700p, but even with the accessory fold-out keyboards, it was still a chore to write blog entries and manage my e-mail. And while the cameras have improved, they’re still pretty bad.
I miss the 3G connectivity with the Mini 9, but Wifi hotspots are becoming more plentiful and it’s getting easier to find them, especially if you have the AT&T deal with Starbucks or McDonald’s.
The SSD (solid state drive) seems perfect for motorcycle travel, since it has no moving parts and is, therefore, less vulnerable to damage from vibration.
The 1GB of RAM and 8GB of SSD capacity are plenty, assuming you don’t junk the Mini 9 up with lots of software. And there isn’t any reason to do that, considering that you can do all of your email, word processing, spreadsheets, calendars, and other office-type functions up in “the cloud” with Google Apps.
I found the Internet Explorer browser’s menu bars took up too much screen real estate, so I installed Google’s streamlined Chrome browser that lets me see more of the web pages at a glance. I also avoid loading up the SSD by using an 8GB SanDisk thumb drive as a D: drive.
I’m not much for touchpads - the Mini 9’s touchpad works fine, I’m just not a touchpad guy - so I use a wireless optical mouse.
The built-in webcam is surprisingly good. I have yet to use it for a live conversation, but it shoots quite acceptable still photos. The SD card reader is perfect for importing images from a higher-quality digital camera.
The smaller keyboard takes a little getting used to. The apostrophe and quote marks and dash/underscore are not where my fingers expected to find them, but it doesn’t take long to make the synaptic adjustment.
The Mini 9 is intelligently designed when it comes to upgrades. You can access its guts by removing two screws and a cover plate on the underside. As I said, it comes with 1GB of RAM. You can double that for about and the conversion takes about 5 minutes.
Computer development being what it is, there are sure to be subsequent generations of netbooks with more speed, power and versatility. But for now, I think the Dell Inspiron Mini 9 is one of the best buys out there.

Gateway LT2030u 10.1-Inch Red Netbook - Over 7 Hours of Battery Life (Windows 7 Starter) Review

I’ve had the Gateway LT2030u for three weeks and am thoroughly enjoying it. I have a full sized computer with all its bells and whistles in a home office and now use it only to update several web sites I maintain and to type and/or print lengthy documents. The Gateway LT2030u had allowed me to go “green” in that it consumes very little energy as compared to my full sized computer and peripherals, plus office heating and lighting. I can use the Gateway anywhere in the house, or for that matter, anywhere on my property.

I bought this netbook off of hp.com, not off Amazon, just to be clear. I’m reviewing this model as it contains windows 7, not XP. My specs are as follows:
