- Here's a blast from the past...This was originally posted back in 2007. Classmates and 1:1 have come a long ways, haven't they? While the United States and other established markets are not the target for Intel’s Classmate PC, I sincerely hope they bring something like this...

- Sony P-series Lifestyle PC

When it comes to Intel-Atom-powered systems, it's no different; Sony's entry into the very hot minilaptop...

- My netbook experiment: Where's the niche?I am not on the fence as much...I enjoy having the Eee PC 701 that I have. The problem is, the item is more of a conversation piece at this point, rather than a tool. While useful when nothing else is around, anything...

- Samsung X460
- For years, Samsung has made laptops for pretty much every laptop-consuming corner of the globe except the U.S (an arrangement that's never particularly bothered us). The Q1 Ultra UMPC is as close as Samsung has come to selling a laptop here, but in the fall of 2008, the company decided...

- Samsung Q1 Ultra Premium
- Once full of promise and impressive feats of engineering, the ultramobile PC category has fallen on hard times, outmaneuvered by a cheaper, more capable class of systems known as Netbooks or mininotebooks. Best exemplified by the popular Asus Eee PC, these laptops use the same small screens and low-power CPUs...
