Samsung NC110-A02US Netbook – Blue     (image from TigerDirect)

This 10.1 inch netbook comes with a 250GB hard drive and Windows 7. It weighs under 3 pounds and boasts a 10.7 hour 6-cell battery!

What’s really amazing is that you can get such mini-laptop, from a strong brand like Samsung, for just $250. That’s $250 for a new, not refurbished, minilaptop. It comes with a one-year Samsung warranty too.

TigerDirect is already having a sale in these, but you can get an extra $30 off with coupon code: GAX34648.

These classic 10 inch minilaptops were a great deal to start with, but the new models are even better, especially at a base price $299.99. They are available in blue, red, silver, and purple, and although the discount isn’t huge ($20), this is still a great deal for a quality netbook.

What makes the new version of the bestselling Aspire One different?
1. New processor (Intel Atom N450). It’s more efficient, letting your minilaptop battery last longer. Plus it’s a bit faster too (1.66 GHz vs 1.6 GHz in the last series).
2. LED-backlighting. You get great picture and your netbook saves a lot on power.
3. 6-cell battery that gives up to 8 hours of battery life (thanks to previous two features).
4. Beautiful redesigned touchpad! It’s textured, sturdy, multi-gesture-reading, not-side-buttoned, and seamless. A huge improvement over the last left/right version’s side-click ones.
5. Windows 7. I admit it, I’m slow to jump onto “new” operating systems, but after seeing Windows 7 in action for almost a year, I have to admit that it truly is an improvement over XP. The split screen and lock feature alone is a huge time-saver.

Other cool features: 1.3 megapixel webcam built in, 93 percent of full size keyboard (improved buttons as well), the improved batteries give a nice tilt to the netbook (which also helps keep air flowing and your netbook functioning better), it’s still got the three USB slots, 1GB RAM, and the 160GB HDD, and the 802.11 B/G wifi (the new models add 802.11 Draft-N to the mix).

The Gateway LT3114U is both a netbook and an ultra slim laptop. What makes this minilaptop stand out as both is the power it caries. It comes with an AMD Athlon 64 Processor (1.2 GHz), 2GB Ram, and 250GB HD. These are not your typical netbook specs. To top that off, the LT 3114U comes with an 11.6 inch super bright screen at 1366 x 768 resolution. At three pounds, one inch height, and a footprint about the size of a piece of paper, this netbook makes a great travel buddy, and with its power components, it’s a travel buddy you won’t have to wait for.
