CNET editors' buying advice

We have not reviewed this product but here is CNET's buying advice on Laptops. This content was chosen based on the features included with this model of laptop.

Netbook computer

Netbook computers are small form factor notebooks that make use of the Net's server-side processing and storage for many tasks. Now that productivity web apps are free and common, many users need little more than a connection and a keyboard. Most Netbook computers don't have mobile broadband built-in yet so you'll still need to hop to a hot spot but external modems are available.

Laptop computer memory size

To maximize battery life, notebook computer processors are often designed to save more energy and run cooler than desktop processors. The drawback is slower performance, but more memory can help, which it won't consume energy or radiate heat. Even better, up to 4GB of RAM can now be found in budget configurations. If you want more memory later, expansion is often a simple procedure.

Notebook computer processors

The central processor (CPU) is the heart of any computer system and an excellent litmus test as to whether a desktop computer or notebook fits your needs. The trouble is, processor names like Athlon and Celeron are as cryptic as system names like Latitude and Pavilion. Here's a quick guide to see which chip is a fit:
