- 12.1-Inch Glossy LED Display (1280×800), 1.3mp Web Cam
I am lucky enough, to have been one of the first ones to purchase the HP Mini 2140s netbooks. Mine was shipped to me in February of 2009. Being the laptop fanatic that I am, this was the first netbook I have ever owned, but the fifth laptop I have had in the last six years.
I personally absolutely love the portability of the HP Mini 2140. It may seem a little small at first, but I quickly got used to it. The 10″ is bright and the metal exterior seems to make this netbook standout from the rest. While on my trip to Europe, I found that this was really the best choice for me simply because of its size.

Acer Ferrari One FO200-1799 11.6-Inch Red Netbook - Up to 5 Hours of Battery Life Review

My company supplies me a HP 8510W, which can’t really be called a laptop, it’s more closer to vacuum cleaner set on blow (yes the fan on the side is that bad, but it does keep my coffee hot!) - & just as portable / useful when on battery, and when plugged into the wall I’m sure the lights dim (…ok just slightly).
and guess what.. I travel a lot, so I decided I needed a netbook (It needed to be cheap because I was paying for it) but actually useful not some low power consumption 1.6Ghz ATOM (or worse) and that you didn’t need to be an Olympic weight lifter to lug around (i’m a Geek after all), and it could actually last on the road at least for a reasonable part of the day, as well as in the office with a large HD LCD screen on high res. (most netbooks the graphics card lets them down in this area)
The Acer Ferrari One meets those needs and then some - I’m really happy with it!
Video / Graphics meets the requirements (and yes it can actually run BF2, at least well enough for when you need to frag something sitting in a hotel room), I installed Win7 Ultimate x64 and it hasn’t missed a beat - in the office I typically have Outlook 2007, Word / Excel and probably 6 or 7 browser sessions open plus Office Communicator, TweetDeck and VISIO or Groove and I can still do full video conferencing without any performance hit.
Out of the office it’s typically lasting me a solid 4 plus hours before I start to have to watch the power meter (it waits until it gets to 10% before starting the warning prompts).
Only thing I’m not impressed with is the colour (Ferrari RED) - hate it! why can’t this spec come in other colours? - however to be fair my wife and daughters love the Red (also another reason I wish it came in another colour)..
For 9 USD it was a no brainer, and since I bought mine 3 others in the office have too.

Acer AOD250-1633 10.1-Inch Black Netbook - Up to 9 Hours of Battery Life (Windows 7 Starter) Review

I bought my acer aspire one with Windows 7 starter but no android.
(The aspire one d250 is a great product.)
So I downloaded a (free) android.iso from [w android-x86 org] and stuck it on a bootable 4GB USB stick.
Now I’ve got a google phone on my netbook (well nearly).
Running the iso in Oracle’s (Sun’s) Virtuabox emulator means it will run under Windows as well - no USB stick needed.
