$400 Macbook Air knockoff outfitted with OS X – Video

Brad Linder — Mon, 01 Feb 2010 15:21:39 +0000

A handful of Chinese companies have been pumping out cheap knockoffs of the Macbook Air for at least a year or two. These notebooks tend to be thin, light, and feature keyboards and touchpads that look an awful lot like those on a certain pricey machine from Apple. But they also tend to be loaded up with Windows or Linux...

Xitrix TravelPro M-10: 2.2 pound netbook for the Philippines

Brad Linder — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 12:02:21 +0000

Xitrix is a computer manufacturer in the Philippines. The company has a handful of desktop and notebooks to its name, but recently introduced its first netbook. The Xitrix TravelPro M-10 is a pretty standard in most respects. It has a 1.6GHz Intel Atom N270 CPU, 802.11b/g/n WiFi, Bluetooth 2.1, and runs Windows 7 Starter Edition. But there are a few...

The rest of the netbook's...

Sony Vaio W overpriced in Philippines as well

Brad Linder — Wed, 15 Jul 2009 20:47:15 +0000

41You know how the Sony Vaio W is expected to sell for around $776 in Australia, while it has a list price of just $499 in the US? Yeah, apparently Australia isn't the only region getting the short end of the stick. Yugatech reports that the netbook will sell for Php39,990 in the Philippines. That's about $835 US. Even in...

Acer Aspire One D250 now shipping in the Philippines

Brad Linder — Mon, 11 May 2009 11:56:51 +0000

Acer has begun selling the Acer Aspire One D250 in the Philippines for 23,995 Pesos, or about $508. That's about the same price that the computer was fetching in pre-orders in Japan a few weeks ago, so while I haven't seen any US or European pricing yet, I'm guessing the D250 won't cost more than $500 in the western hemisphere....

Asus to eliminate Linux Eee PC option – in the Philippines

Brad Linder — Sun, 09 Nov 2008 12:18:30 +0000

You know how the other day we were talking about whether netbooks were a threat to Microsoft because so many of the little laptops run Linux? Yeah, apparently the answer if you happen to live in the Philippines is no. Because one of the top netbook makers has decided to stop offering a Linux option in the Philippine market. Manila...

Deep Blue H1 price cut: Now just $215

Brad Linder — Wed, 17 Sep 2008 18:52:26 +0000

When Blue Digital Systems announced the Deep Blue H1 in April, the little laptop's $400-ish price tag was par for the course. But less than half a year later, you can pick up a far more capable laptop like the Acer Aspire One for less money. So it's not surprising to see that the company has decided to drop the...

Neo ViVid V1100 isn’t an MSI Wind clone after all

Brad Linder — Mon, 25 Aug 2008 19:52:59 +0000

So it turns out that when I told you the Neo ViVid V1100 was an MSI Wind clone destined for the Philippines, I was wrong. While PC Corner certainly had a picture of an MSI Wind lookalike on the product page for a while, it has since been replaced with the photo shown above. I can't say I've seen any...

Neo ViVid V1100 MiniNote: MSI Wind rebranded for the Philippines

Brad Linder — Thu, 07 Aug 2008 17:32:09 +0000

Asus Eee Hacks spotted a product page at PC Corner for a new PC that looks awfully familiar. The Neo ViVid V1100 MiniNote is basically a rebranded version of the MSI Wind laptop available in the US and Europe. This is hardly the first time we've seen the Wind pop up under a different name. Russia's got the Roverbook Neo...
