The Lenovo IdeaPad S10-2 is Lenovo’s second foray into the netbook space. You could probably figure that out from the name alone. While the IdeaPad S10 had some interesting features that you won’t find on every netbook, including an ExpressCard, the IdeaPad S10-2 is pretty much standard netbook fare with the usual netbook specs.

Dell Inspiron Mini 10v review
The Dell Inspiron Mini 10v is the first 10 inch laptop from Dell to feature an Intel Atom N270 processor. You might think that makes this laptop just like virtually every other 10 inch netbook on the market, but there are a few key features that make the Mini 10v stand apart including a good […]
Asus Eee PC 1101HA review
The Asus Eee PC 1101HA is the first laptop in the Asus Eee PC lineup to have an 11.6 inch display. Some people will argue that this means it’s not a netbook, but the Eee PC 1101HA isn’t much larger than the 10.2 inch Eee PC 1005HA, and it’s design is almost identical in most […]
Acer Aspire 1410 review
Update: Acer has released an updated version of this notebook with a dual core Celeron processor and Windows 7 Home Premium. You can read my review of that model here. The Acer Aspire 1410 is a bit larger than your typical netbook thanks to its 11.6 inch, 1366 x 768 pixel display and nearly full […]
Samsung N310 “Go” review
The Samsung Go is an intriguing netbook. In other parts of the world, Samsung dubs this model the Samsung N310, but in the US, the company calls it the ‘Go” to emphasize its portability and mobility features. But honestly, there’s not much to set the Samsung Go apart from other netbooks in its class. It’s […]
Gigabyte TouchNote T1028X review
The Gigabyte TouchNote T1028X is a portable laptop with a 10.2 inch display and an Intel Atom N280 processor. But if I stopped there, it would sound pretty much like every other netbook on the market, when the truth is that this machine has more goodies packed into it than just about any other netbook […]
Lenovo IdeaPad S12 review
The Lenovo IdeaPad S12 is larger than a netbook, but smaller than most notebooks. It has a 12.1 inch, 1280 x 800 pixel display and a full sized keyboard. But the unit I reviewed has a 1.6GHz Intel Atom N270 CPU and integrated graphics, which means the performance is on par with you average netbook […]
Asus Eee PC T91 touchscreen netbook review
The Asus Eee PC T91 is the first convertible touchscreen netbook from Asus. In other words, you can fold the screen down over the keyboard and use the netbook as a tablet. At launch, it ships with Windows XP Home Edition, not Windows 7 or Windows XP Tablet Edition, which are optimized for use with […]
Asus Eee PC 1005HA review
The Asus Eee PC 1005HA netbook features an excellent balance of size and battery life. At a glance, the netbook looks virtually identical to the Eee PC 1008HA, but it’s both thicker and heavier. The added depth gives the 1005HA room for a full sized VGA port, and a high capacity removable battery, both of […]
Acer Aspire One D250 Review
The Acer Aspire One D250 is the latest 10 inch netbook from Acer. It has a 1.6GHz Intel Atom N270 CPU and 10.1 inch, 1024 x 600 pixel display, but fits into a smaller and lighter case than the Acer Aspire One D150. Joe Rybicki is a freelance writer who’s spent the last 13 years […]
