- Netbooks worth the upgrade to Windows 7? Heck yes!
- my thoughts"As I wrote the day that 7 launched, 'Windows 7 is just another OS.'"An article sitting at a -1 rating (out of 33 people) as I type this, and with quite a bit of Talkback discussion. Not exactly a shining pillar of truth."Most netbooks ship with Windows XP Home...

- Vizio VF551XVT

- Toshiba Satellite T135-S1310
- How much of a difference does a single-core versus dual-core ultralow-voltage processor make on a thin-and-light these days? You may not be paying attention under the hood--and that's not your fault, because it's hard to notice the differences based on processor name and Intel sticker-logos--but you should know that it...

- RIM BlackBerry Storm 2 (Verizon Wireless)
