Athena Style PC is a netbook… with style

Brad Linder — Mon, 02 Aug 2010 17:01:15 +0000

It's hard to make a 10 inch netbook stand out from the crowd these days. Some folks do it by offering extra memory, ahrd drive space, or a bump from Windows 7 Starter to windows 7 Home Premium. Others do it by offering a netbook with a designer lid. Olivetti is taking both approaches with the new Athena Style PC....

Sony Vaio W Billabong edition surfing to US shores

Brad Linder — Mon, 31 May 2010 22:45:01 +0000

Last week we heard that Sony was launching a special edition Vaio W netbook with a Billabong design. Billabong is an Australian company that designs gear for surfers and skateboarders, and last I'd heard the netbook would only be available in Australia. But it turns out Sony has decided to offer the distinctive looking mini-laptop in the US as well....

Closer look at the Asus Eee PC 1008P Karim Rashid edition

Brad Linder — Tue, 05 Jan 2010 23:39:48 +0000

I got a chance to spend a few minutes with the new designer netbook from Asus. The Eee PC 1008P Karim Rashid Edition is pretty much a standard Pine Trail netbook for the most part, but it's one of the first designer edition netbooks I've seen that has a pattern that not only incorporates the lid and keyboard area, but...

Asus Eee PC 1008P Karim Rashid edition

Brad Linder — Tue, 05 Jan 2010 13:09:10 +0000

The Asus Eee PC 1008P is basically an updated version of the Asus Eee PC 1008HA with an Atom N450 processor replacing the older Atom N280 CPU. Cosmetically the only real difference is that the new model has a chiclet style keyboard with space between the keys. But there's also a limited edition version of the Eee PC 1008P that...

Packard Bell dot VR46 Valentino Rossi edition looks all fancy and stuff

Brad Linder — Tue, 15 Dec 2009 18:12:42 +0000

Sure, it's what's on the inside that really counts. But if you'r the superficial type that likes to judge a netbook by its cover, Packard Bell's got a real looker for you. Notebook Italia dug up some photos of a new Packard Bell Valentino Rossi edition of the company's dot notebook. Rossi, in case you don't follow Italian motorcycle racing,...

Asus Eee PC 1008P is a high-fashion Pinetrail netbook

Lee — Tue, 01 Dec 2009 16:00:00 +0000

Designer netbooks are all the rage, apparently. Today's new model is designed by Karim Rashid, and it's all kinds of glossy, crocodile skin sexy. Available in both chocolate brown and hot pink tones, the Asus Eee PC 1008P's shell is painted up like a crocodile handbag straight out of Neiman Marcus. It's essentially an upmarket version of the 1008HA. Apart...

Over the past few days, the folks at SammyNetbook have spotted two different designer edition netbooks from Samsung. A few days ago, Samsung launched the Agnes B. Edition NC10 netbook in France. This model is basically just a standard NC10 with a stylish lid signed by the designer, and featuring a lizard. Now it looks like UK retailer John Lewis...
