HP Mini 110-1125NR 10.1-Inch Black Netbook - Up to 8 Hours of Battery Life (Windows 7 Starter) Review

HP Mini 110-1125NR 10.1-Inch Black Netbook - Up to 8 Hours of Battery Life (Windows 7 Starter)
I bought this computer for my wife. It came with Windows 7 Starter. I installed Microsoft Office and have been very pleased with the performance of the machine with 1 GB of memory. It is basically a machines for web surfing and some light duty software. It is very portable and convenient. I installed Skype and was able to get everything working in less than 1/2 hour. There is one minor irritation with the power supply jack. It will lose contact if you move the computer just very slightly. I am going to call HP and find out whether this is a defect on my machine.

Sony VAIO VPC-W121AX/T 10.1-Inch Brown Netbook - Up to 7 Hours of Battery Life (Windows 7 Starter) Review

Sony VAIO VPC-W121AX/T 10.1-Inch Brown Netbook - Up to 7 Hours of Battery Life (Windows 7 Starter)
This is the newest model (W211AX) of Sony’s Netbooks and has a extended battery life. While others may complain of the battery- I like the fact that it elevates the netbook up towards you. Depending on the surfing you do- you may have a bit less battery life than advertised. I ordered the pink Vaio and couldn’t be more pleased. It was everything I expected it to be and then some. The Track pad is reasonably sized and much larger than most. The screen clarity is amazing. My only complaint is where the speakers are situated for the volume. I simply resolved this issue on my own and use my ipod head phones when listening to sound. To the lower right of screen you may also adjust zoom level. Your options are 100, 125, and 150. If you do increase the zoom level- You do loose a bit of viewing and must scroll from side to side. The keyboard buttons are a bit elevated and makes it easier for typing. The only other downfall that I could say would be that the netbook only comes with Windows 7 Starter. With this program starter version you are unable to change desktop background. Bummer… I love that I can install my SD card and download my photos too. Perfect for web surfing, downloading pics, typing, emails, etc.
AMAZING LITTLE NETBOOK!!!!!!!!
SONY CONTINUES TO IMPROVE THEIR APPEARANCE, MODELS INTERIOR, AND STAND BY THE SONY NAME WITH EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!!!!!!

Toshiba Mini NB205-N325PK 10.1-Inch Posh Pink Netbook - 9 Hours of Battery Life (Windows 7 Starter) Review

Toshiba Mini NB205-N325PK 10.1-Inch Posh Pink Netbook - 9 Hours of Battery Life (Windows 7 Starter)
I have loved this netbook. The battery life is great, the appearance of the netbook is great. I love the textured cover. I got it in chocolate brown. It’s a great color. I think it’s very easy to type on, and the portability is great. It fits into my purse with no problem. I am not that knowledgable as far as the specifics of any computer, but I have found no problems working this computer. It runs quickly, even after I installed the whole Microsoft Office system. I would definitely recommend this netbook to anyone. It is easy to use, great in appearance, and very portable.

Samsung N150 10.1-Inch Red Netbook - Up to 7 Hours of Battery Life Review

Samsung N150 10.1-Inch Red Netbook - Up to 7 Hours of Battery Life
I ordered this computer last week and have been very happy with it. I use it for video chatting, internet, and word processing. The Windows 7 Starter is nice and it gives you Word for 60 days for free. The webcam is nice and does the job on skype. I picked this netbook over others because of the keyboard. The keys are a bit more separated than other netbooks which I loved. I’ve had no trouble typing at all. The computer picked up my wireless internet right off of the bat, better than my old laptop did. The battery life is awesome…I have to plug it in every couple of days but that’s it. The screen does take a little getting use to as I’ve had to zoom in a few times to really see something when I’m online shopping, but I’d rather have that then be carrying around a huge heavy laptop with a shorter battery life.

MSI Wind U100-451US 10-Inch White Netbook - 3 Cell Battery Review

MSI Wind U100-451US 10-Inch White Netbook - 3 Cell Battery
I keep the wind plugged in (the battery does suck) on my reading table and use it to casually surf the internet, check email and occasionally do a bit of work. I took the advice of another review and removed ms office suite and use open office for my word processor, but rarely have need for it anyway. For my purposes it’s perfect. The keyboard is easy to type on, the screen size is small but fine. Don’t expect anything out of the speakers; just use ear buds. I would not only recommended this product to a friend but wouldn’t hesitate for a moment to buy another one tomorrow for myself if mine was lost or broken.
I hope this helps a someone sitting on the fence.

Toshiba Mini NB205-N330WH 10.1-Inch Frost White Netbook - 9 Hours of Battery Life (Windows 7 Starter) Review

Toshiba Mini NB205-N330WH 10.1-Inch Frost White Netbook - 9 Hours of Battery Life (Windows 7 Starter)
I ordered a mini NB205 with atom N280 Intel processor. It has 250G hard drive, built in web camera, several USB2 slots, an SD slot for the digital camera card, a full size keyboard, runs Win 7 starter, and is black, for about 0. I have had it for 2 months, and have been traveling most of that time, though I had a week to set it up before we left. I am very satisfied with it, especially it portability and functionality. I don’t do graphics-intensive stuff. I do WiFi email, some web surfing, Office stuff, Skype, some Bible software, and save my pictures. The only thing I am not very satisfied with is the sound quality of Skype calls, but I expected that based on reviews I read before buying it. Probably I would be happy with a headset, but then my wife cannot join the conversation with grandchildren. I still have well over 200G of space on my HD. I charge it for an hour or so in the morning after I get up, and that is usually enough for use throughout the day. I have had not problems with it. I figured out how to load software from DVDs via my laptop which is part of my home network. I have not noticed any limitations with the OS; my other PCs run XP. I recommend it for anyone who has a similar use profile.

Toshiba Mini NB205-N325PK 10.1-Inch Posh Pink Netbook - 9 Hours of Battery Life (Windows 7 Starter)
I’m a real desktop fan and never used a laptop much unless forced to. Things haven’t changed since I bought the Toshiba netbook but this fills a need of mine. It’s great when I travel and want to surf the web and check email. It takes up much less room than a laptop and the battery really does last nine hours! A great investment for my needs

Acer AOD250-1727 10.1-Inch Black Netbook - Up to 9 Hours of Battery Life
So after much searching and thinking, I ended up choosing the Acer Aspire and I’m very impressed. The battery life, weight, size and performance get 5/5, for me at least.
For someone who just wants a netbook to be online and get things done, I would recommend this one.
