Optical drive for Webbook 10

So an optical drive in a netbook, what is all that about? It sounds like something Asus would have a few years ago and yet here we are looking at this cool looking ten inch netbook from the Chinese Imore whose Webbook 10 comes with an optical drive.

1.6 GHz Intel Atom N270 processor

But when compared there is little to choose from with regards to which is the better model, when it comes to size, performance, battery life, weight and display there is little to choose between the two. When it comes to price, it would seem that there is only around $50 difference!

Asus speeds up Lamborghini

The Lamborghini laptop by Asus has raised a few eyebrows but now it is likely to do even more than that as they have added a 1TB Solid State Drive which can deliver high speed performance as you would expect from a laptop the a badge like that on the front.

emd620-5777

eMachines have always been the low-cost alternative. But now with netbooks flooding the market, eMachines needs to step up its game. So, the company is releasing a full sized laptop for less than $400. Is the eMD620 woth it? Let’s see.

As a Best Buy exclusive, this notebook is subpar. An Athlon 2650e with 1.6 GHz won’t get you very far in the office of on the net and the low 1 GB of RAM will surely lead to slowdown within a year.

Plus, the little thing us pretty ugly, sports low battery life and only has two USB ports.
