When mini laptops first came onto the market they were a little of a novelty, but now these small laptops have come of age and pack some serious hardware inside, in some cases they pack more inside one of these mini laptops than a regular sized laptop.
Take the Panasonic Lets Note R9, it comes with a ten inch display as you would expect, but also an Intel Core i7 processor although this can be upgraded if so desired. However there is a price to pay for all of this decadence.
