While there’s no doubt that the Windows CE-based Jointech JL7100 is pretty cheap by subnotebook, or even PDA standards, it appears that this Eee PC look-a-like might not be quite as inexpensive as I’d originally reported.

The folks at Notebooks.com got some alone time with the 9 inch version of the new Lenovo netbook.

Ever wonder where Wind comes from?
No, not that kind of wind. The folks at Madbox PC took a tour of the Chinese factory where the MSI Wind laptop is assembled. They got to see the process from start to finish and shot an awful lot of pictures. While part of the process is automated, there’s also a bit of a […]
