So you want a tiny laptop to take on the prowl, but you're not sure which one to get? It all seemed so clear in the beginning -- you had your mind set on an Eee PC 701 or 900, but then half the laptop manufacturers in the world suddenly went and made copycat machines.
Fear not, be-puzzled and perplexed reader, Crave has seen nearly all of these Eee-type machines and we're pretty well-placed to tell you which one might be best for you. Sequestered deep in our secret underground laboratory, we gorged ourselves on Red Bull,
Office 2010 Standard, analysed the pros and cons of each netbook,
Buy Office 2007, and can now bring you the fruits of that labour.
Over the following pages, you'll find our unique assessment of the Samsung NF210, Acer Aspire One 533, Dell Mini 1012, Acer Aspire One D260, Nokia Booklet 3G, Samsung N130, MSI Wind U160, Toshiba NB305, Alienware M11x and Asus Eee PC 1008P Seashell. But not in that order. Oh no. That would be giving the game away.
As you can see, there's a fair bit of choice. Apply liberal quantities of grease to your elbows, get stuck in and see if your opinion matches ours. If it doesn't, you're probably wrong. Regards.
Update, 11 February 2011: We've updated the list to reflect the very best of cutting-edge netbook technology. These micro machines are facing increasingly stiff competition from tablets and smart phones, but we're happy to report that manufacturers are still churning out some cool little computers.
Perhaps one day netbooks will cease to be relevant but,
Windows 7 Enterprise Key, until that day comes, we'll be faithfully working our hands to the bone,
Purchase Office 2007, tapping out reviews and comparisons of all the slickest netbooks. We exist to serve you, dear reader. All we ask in return is that you send us some snacks in the post. Creating lists is hungry work,
Windows 7 32bit, you know.
