- Netbooks dead? Not when sales are up 264% percent
- My prediction:Intel and MS and the major brands are trying to drag the market upwards in size and cost to maintain their margins. They will shortly face a barrage of products based on ARM class processors and Linux (Chrome?), which will cost much less and have much better battery lives....

- Dell Latitude 2100
- Netbooks, while as popular as ever, have settled into a fairly routine existence, with thin plastic shells, Intel Atom CPUs, Windows XP, and 10-inch displays. But when a company attempts to take these basic parts and dress them up with unique features, our ears perk up. Recently we've seen stabs...

- HP Mini 5101 (Intel Atom N280 1.66GHz, 1GB RAM, 160GB HDD, XP Home Basic)
- When we heard that HP was making some big changes to its small business Netbook, we were worried. After all, the current version--the Mini 2140--is probably our all-time favorite Netbook, thanks to an innovative keyboard (since adopted by HP's consumer Netbooks), full ExpressCard slot, and solid metal construction. This...

- While I'm away..."How I'd use Classmate PCs in the States (and why I really want a UMPC now)"
- 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...

- ARRA, affordability driving interest in Latitude 2100
- Not long ago, I wrote a post concerning what I saw as a high price and somewhat limited value for Dell's new educational netbook, the Latitude 2100. It seems, however, that a lot of school districts disagreed. According to a brief on Yahoo News, "more than 500 U.S....

- Iomega eGo Portable Hard Drive w/ Protection Suite (320GB, silver)
- Plenty of companies have their own lines of portable external hard drives for carrying data on the go, but few have the polish of Iomega's eGo drives. We've already reviewed several eGos including the eGo Helium, eGo Camo, and eGo Brown Leather and they all impressed us with a healthy...

- A case for rugged laptops?
- I'm not a gentle laptop user. They get tossed in my car, jammed in my bag, and slid off my lap. My white MacBook is only white in a few spots now (the keyboard and wrist-rests a fairly disgusting shade of gray). Kids, however, make me look downright...

- If you own a nice new MacBook or MacBook Pro, it's a safe bet that style matters as much to you as function. Some bag makers--the smart ones--get this about Mac users. Be.ez, makers of the $89 LAbesace Lime Drop (don't ask us how to pronounce that--we have no idea...
