Best Netbook Laptops

Monday August 31, 2009

The netbook market is undergoing a lot of change right now. A variety of new models have entered the market that use new Intel Atom processors, longer lasting batteries and larger screens. Performance between many of these systems still remains relatively similar because of the hardware limitations imposed on the manufacturers by Microsoft. Because of this, features such as price, battery life, keyboards and screens are much more important in what netbook might best fit an individual. For this reason, I have updated my selection of the Best Netbooks to show which ones I feel are best suited for various tasks or features.

A review is a short article that gets to the point. I believe you know what you’re talking about. I just don’t have 1/2 hour of reading time to spare.

The Lenovo S10-2 and S12 were both released after the list was release. There are also a number of netbooks from companies like Acer, ASUS, HP and others that will be reviewed prior to my next update scheduled for August.

I have a lot of time to read good reviews of products before I buy a costly item. So thank-you for what you have done here. This is the best (most helpful) review I have read because you break it down to best by features.
