Gigabyte TouchNote T1028X review

tilted 1

The Gigabyte TouchNote T1028X is a portable laptop with a 10.2 inch display and an Intel Atom N280 processor.

The first thing…

A closer look at the Gigabyte TouchNote’s touchscreen

touchnote touchscreen

One of the Gigabyte TouchNote T1028X’s defining features is its touchscreen display. And while the computer ships with Windows XP Home Edition, which means it doesn’t include all the bells and whistles that you might expect from a tablet PC, the touchscreen is pretty responsive.

Like most 10 inch netbooks on the market today, the Samsung Go has a 1024 x 600 pixel display. The TouchNote T1028X, on the other hand, has a 1366 x 768 pixel touchscreen display….

What my desk looks like today

my desk

Yeah, I’ve got a backlog of netbooks to review. The next week or two should be fun. I’d like to thank Samsung, Gigabyte, and Lenovo for sending me these models to review. The little guy in the back of the second row is my Asus Eee PC 1000H. That’s right, I’ve actually managed to hang onto the same netbook for…
