The Asus Eee PC 1215B is a notebook with a 12.1 inch display and it looks an awful lot like all of the other recent 12.1 inch laptops from Asus. It has the same keyboard and touchpad layout, and generally has the same ports, and software. Even the power adapter looks like the one you […]

Motorola XOOM review
The Motorola XOOM checked a lot of boxes in the “first” category when it launched in February. It was the first tablet computer to ship with a 1 GHz NVIDIA Tegra 2 dual core processor. It was the first tablet to run Google Android 3.0 Honeycomb and the first to be updated to Android 3.1. […]
Samsung NC110 netbook review

HP Pavilion dm1z review
The HP Pavilion dm1z is a great laptop for the price, with a low starting price of just $449. In fact, you can often find the laptop on sale for even cheaper. The laptop has an 11.6 inch display, weighs just about 3.5 pounds, and has a 1.6 GHz AMD E-350 dual core processor and […]
Acer Aspire One 522 netbook review
The Acer Aspire One 522 is the first netbook to ship in the US with a 10.1 inch display and an AMD C-50 processor with Radeon HD 6250 graphics. If it weren’t for the high resolution 1280 x 720 pixel display, you’d probably have a hard time telling this mini-laptop apart from any other netbook. […]
Lenovo ThinkPad Edge 11 review
The Lenovo ThinkPad Edge 11 is a thin and light 11.6 inch laptop that blurs the lines in many ways between Lenovo’s consumer laptops and the company’s business-class ThinkPad machines. Like a ThinkPad, the Edge 11 has Lenovo’s TrackPoint system with both a touchpad and a pointing stick in the middle of the keyboard. Like […]
ExoPC Slate Windows 7 tablet review
The ExoPC Slate is a tablet computer with an 11.6 inch display and no keyboard. It has an Intel Atom N450 processor and runs Windows 7 Home Premium. But what really sets it apart from the crowd is the custom user interface designed by ExoPC. Don’t get me wrong. The hardware is decent. The large, […]
WiiPad Slim Plus (HaiPad M701) Android tablet review
I’ve been putting off reviewing the WiiPad Slim Plus for months because I had a rather frustrating experience with the company distributing this 7 inch Android tablet, but while support for the product is virtually nil, it’s actually not a bad device. Don’t get me wrong, this $150 Android tablet isn’t in the same class […]
Samsung Galaxy Tab review
Over the past year or so, we’ve seen a number of companies release tablets running Google’s Android operating system. These machines range in side from 5 to 10 inches, and tend to engender comparisons to Apple’s iPad, because let’s face it — the iPad is probably the most popular tablet computer ever released, and like […]
Testing Renice-Tech’s new Mini PCI-E 70mm SandForce SSD for Eee PCs
So far, the best performing Mini PCIe solid state disk for Asus Eee PC netbooks that use SSDs has been the Runcore Pro IV series, with the Indilinx controller. This is due in part to the fact that up until now, no one else has utilized a better controller for a Mini PCI-E SSD. But […]
