Samsung NC10 Netbook Review!

Samsung has recently introduced their new netbook to the U.S. market. (In the past, we haven’t really seen any of Samsung laptops in the U.S. which I believe is due to unpopularity. But they are popular all over Asia) The Samsung NC10 looks really good with almost exact specs as the new ASUS Eee PC 1000HA (which we recommend). The only difference is that the NC10 comes with bluetooth which ASUS Eee PCs don’t. (That’s not a big advantage though, you can always buy a $20 bluetooth unit and add it to the Eee PC) As far a pricing goes, the Samsung costs about $60 more than the Eee PC. Our final verdict is not to buy this unless you are a hardcore Samsung fan. Samsung does make great laptops and I don’t see why not you’d pay a little extra for that. Here’s the specs for the Samsung NC10 Netbook: 10.2″ Wide, 1024 x 600 WSVGA , 220 nits Intel Atom Processor N270, 1.6 GHz, 533 MHz Front Side Bus, 512 KB Level 2 Cache 160 GB, 2.5″ HD, 1 GB DDR2 800 MHz Intel® 945GSE shared, 802.11 b/g WiFi, Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR, 10/100 BaseTX LAN 6-Cell Lithium … Continue reading →

Hypersonic PC launched Avenger AG2

Hypersonic PC launches its colorful and playful Avenger AG2 notebook. But will great colors attract more customer than core features? The Avenger AG2 comes equipped a Intel Core 2 Duo Processor T9300 2.5Ghz with 6MB L2 Cache and 800 MHz FSB (Front side bus). The laptop features a 12.1″ glossy display and among other features, it comes with a Windows Vista. Laptop Pimp’s Verdict The laptop is equipped with good features but not great ones. For one, the laptop doesn’t come with an option for EDVO/HSDPA for broadband access. For most travelers these days, an embedded EDVO/HSDPA is a must. The Hypersonic PC comes only with Windows Vista. I’d probably downgrade to Windows XP as soon as it arrives on my doorstep so this is only an extra cost added for consumers who don’t use Vista. Final Verdict? Do not get one unless you don’t plan on using broadband modem or you like Vista. via laptoping a avenger, colors, consumers, doorstep, final verdict, front side bus, good features, hsdpa, hypersonic pc, intel, intel core 2, intel core 2 duo processor, l2 cache, laptop, Laptop Reviews, modem, notebook, pimp, travelers, windows xp
