 Acer Aspire One

Some users don’t need a fully fledged notebook computer for their daily tasks. For the user who only surfs the Internet, watches the occasional video and listens to music a small netbook like the ASUS Eee may be just what they need.

The ASUS Eee has spawned a plethora of similar systems competing for the low price, portable netbook market and Acer introduced its Aspire One netbook a while back just for this market. Acer announced that the One is now available for purchase in America.

 3K Computers RazorBook 400

I really like the idea of the small netbook size ultra mobile notebooks. What I don’t like about them is that the cheap ones tend to run Linux. Yeah I know the Linux fans out there say that is a huge upside, but let’s face it for the majority of the computer jocks out there it’s Windows all the way.

Not too long ago 3K Computers announced a new ultra-portable notebook to battle against ASUS and its popular Eee line of netbooks. The first version of the RazorBook 400 3K announced was running on Linux. Today 3K announced a new version of the RazorBook 400 that runs on Windows CE.
