Disadvantages: none i can think of

I bouht one of these a week ago and I think this is on of the most ellegent and efficient laptops around today.

The centrino has built in 11b wifi, i have it wirelessly connected throughout the house using ADSL and a wireless router. It runs quietly and the battery seems to last for ever.

The Linux system can be used intead of windows just by switching on with a different button, or you can just switch on normally and windows xp loads up pretty quick. The Linux interface can be used for watching dvd's, burning CD's, listening to music or watching video/pics from your hard drive. Onboard is a 64 meg ATI graphics card which is easily enough for most games i have. The widescreen is beautifully ... Read review

Advantages: 1gb Ram, Silver look
Disadvantages: weak casing, low battery life

I bought this laptop from comet mid november and it is one of the best pieces of equipment i have bought. Even though the casing is quite weak, the look is fantastic and the overall speed of the pc is WOW! That 1gb Ram really does boost the speed and was surely a big change from the pc i used last, which only had 256mb ram and 800mhz celeron processor. The Windows XP Media Centre 2005 Operating System is surely worth the money you pay, and is perfect ... Read review

Advantages: Great spec for price, reliable.
Disadvantages: Feels flimsy, doesnt have the reputation of other brands.

...easiest way to describe the Acer Aspire 1682 is to simply say, "If you are working o a budget, but want a laptop that can do pretty much everything that a normal, everyday person would need, then this is the one for you. For those of you who want the full technical spec, then ill go into that later. Don't worry, I wont miss you out. Look and Feel My previous laptop was a bulky piece of kit, and considering it had lasted me for 5 years, it tells ...
...models I decided on the Acer Aspire series and in particular the 1682 WLMi model. The first thing you notice about the laptop is the crystallized screen, and its absolutely stunning clarity. This is a 15.4" WXGA WideScreen colour TFT LCD with 1280 x 800 pixel resolution. A widescreen on a laptop? Ideal for those of us who use it whilst traveling for DVD's and it's superb for game play, but it's the general clarity in usage that I enjoy. Whilst browsing ... Read review

Advantages: Fast boot time, Good connectivity
Disadvantages: Small keyboard, horizontal scrolling, poor webcam

The Asus EEE is one of those things that you never knew you needed until you get it. I have been so impressed by this tiny machine that I am planning to get my own once I have to give back this one that I borrowed from work. So what exactly is a sub-notebook anyway? Well the first thing you notice about the EEE is it's size. It's really small & compact yet has a surprising plastic but tough feel to it. You could be forgiven for thinking that someone ...
...hours when fully charged the Asus EEE is a wonderful mobile companion. I would choose it over devices costing more than double (see some of my other reviews), as its a prime example of the manufacturer being on-the-ball and creating a really usable PC at a bargain basement price. I would love to get my hands on the larger screen version as it can be slightly annoying having to use the horizontal scroll-bar to read some web content but that's down ... Read review
