HP Slate Detail
At CES, there was one Windows tablet that got quite a bit of attention- the HP Slate. This device is the antithesis of the iPad as it is a full featured device, complete with a full OS, and full processor. On top of that, it can run flash, and do anything that any other Windows [...]

This is a short video of the ExoPC doing its tablet thing caught on video. I like the speed that I am seeing, and how easy it looks for this thing to control. On top of that, notice how they keep showing this on the side, and the USB ports being exposed. [...]

It is starting to look like 2010 will be the year of the tablet PC. With Apple entering the market with their iPad, other manufacturers are also rushing into this market segment. The latest tablet spotted is from ExoPC. This tablet is expected to be available in March, at the $499 price point that seems to [...]

22. January 2010 | by Jonas
There has been a whole flurry of new netbooks in the last month. Acer is generally known for their more affordable gear, and their new model that uses the latest Atom N450 chip is the Aspire One 532h. I have to admit that with a price tag of $299, sometimes it almost seems a little [...]

10. December 2009 | by Jonas
With the bargains to be had, there was quite the fury for Black Friday. However, with limited stock, not everyone got the item they wanted, although it would appear that netbooks were big sellers. As the holiday shopping season is hardly over, it is easy to see why the retailers would want to do this [...]

16. November 2009 | by Robert Nelson
I have been running Windows 7 on my Eee PC 1000H for what seems like a long time now, well, actually it is coming up on one year. And in that year I will say that I have been very pleased with the performance. That said it is likely to believe now that Windows 7 [...]

3. November 2009 | by Jonas
If you’ve been wondering how the boot times compare on venerable Windows XP compared to Windows 7, wonder no more. While Win 7 does start up quicker than Vista, it still is no speed champ to startup. Seeing the two laptops load their OS’ side by side gives a revealing look into how efficient Windows [...]

31. October 2009 | by Jonas
With Windows 7 still so new, the better deals are out there on the Windows XP machines. However, Win XP just feels older and older to me, and once you try Win 7, I have to admit that it is hard to go back. For the record, I’m currently running Windows 7 Home Premium, Vista [...]

29. October 2009 | by Robert Nelson
Following up on the post that I wrote the other day about the eviGroup Pad tablet style PC, we now have a nice hands-on video with that device. The hands on comes courtesy of nowhereelse.fr who have also given the news that the Pad is available for sale. Overall, the device looks really nice in the [...]

26. October 2009 | by Jonas
When the UL30A was announced, we called it out as being a nice piece of hardware, but not likely to fly for $800. Thankfully, Asus has also introduced their UL20A. I find the specs more netbook like, and the price more consumer friendly. I characterize the UL20A as netbook like due to its larger 12.1″ display. [...]
