Reviews Samsung NC10-13GB 10.1-Inch Blue Netbook - Up to 6 Hours of Battery Life

i've had the nc10 for over a year now and i offer the following:
i bought it for all the reasons every else mentions, great keyboard, excellent battery life, fantastic build. these have held true a year. i travel a lot and wanted a machine that will play movies for 5hrs on a flight, be light enough to carry around all day and use on a tray on a plane. it does all of those things very well.
i prefer this keyboard over the mac type keyboards.
what i would change. i wish it can read memory sticks for my sony camera.

i had a screen issue and samsung support was excellent. they paid for shipping to and from and replaced the lcd screen under warranty.

i'll probably get a CULV machine, like the acer 1410 when the price drops because i want to watch HD content and have hdmi. but until then, this is probably one of the best atom n270 machines and for this price, south of three hundred, is excellent value!

Reviews Apple Mac mini MC238LL/A Desktop

I love my mac mini. Its small, it fits under my 24in monitor. After having PCs for 20 years and upgrading all my systems with windows 7 ( desktop/notebook/netbook) I thought i had the best of he computer world. Then My school started switching to mac. Mac and PC are compatible but i thought why not try out Mac OS X 10.6.

The mac mini is a nice little package that would be a perfect starter for a reasonable price ($550) So I bought one, and now... I prefer my low powered Mac Mini over my Desktop with the Quad Core, 3TB of HD storage, X-Fi audio, Bluray and DVD Burner drives. My desktop PC and Mac mini live together now, I love the fact that the mini is dead silent and uses about 14W of power versus 600W off my monster PC. MS office 2008 for mac is so much easier to use than Office 2007 in PCs. All the mac versions of my programs (firefox, bittorrent, email, Word processing, etc) are so much more stable than in my PCs. I use my mac mini for all my papers, homework, research and media (apple's strengths) And my PC does all my Video encoding, Bluray, document scanning.editing, movies, and network stuff. I have to admit, i do not like the lack of programs for mac for DVD copying and format encoding out there, not to mention no Blue RAY!!! But then, few people use that stuff anyway. The bluetooth 2.1 is great with printers (i have a canon mx860 with a bluetooth dongle), the Wireless N has impressive range. I do recommend geting the apple aluminum keyboard because its just one of the best keyboards ive ever used not to mention It has all the mac command keys. I use a notebook PC mouse, and it works just great

I did have to upgrade my mini just a tiny bit, cause I felt the 2GB of DDR3 mem was handicapping the system, I snagged a $49 single Patriot Memory 2GB DDR3 chip and replaced one of the DIMMS in the mac mini. IF you are a novice in computer upgrading, you can do it but be so carefull and slow doing it. All you need is a 3in putty knife and a 00 phillips screwdriver. You can find the video how to upgrade the mac mini Memory and HD on youtube.

Even at only 3GB of memory, my mac mini blazes and renders internet browsing and MS office 2008 faster than my uber-PC with 6GB of DDR2 RAM. Technical jargon for techies: The mac mini comes with a Fujitsu HD. Im not a fan of fujitsu, but the drive apple uses has a long and reputable and dependable record. The tech specs are not bad, Averages 65-75 MB/s transfers with about a 79 MB burst. ITs a 5400rpm drive. It works and is dependable, but i needed something more.

I strapped a Hitachi 7200rpm 16MB 500GB 7K500 HD disk and now my mac mini howels!!! It does DVD copying, torrenting, P2Ping, video and photo editing like crazy! Right now only hitachi makes the most reliable, quiet, and speedy 7200 NB hard drives 320GB or better. I would have rather dropped a 500 or 540 WD black Notebook drive, but they dont exist yet. The 2.26 GHz Core 2 Duo is no slouch, it does the work. The 2.53 Model is awesome and probably cut off a few seconds on your mp3 encodings, but if ur about seconds u wouldnt be getting a mac mini! If you are big into CPU intensive stuff like Film and audio editing, you probably should have got a iMAC or Mac PRO tower for double or quadruble the price.

IN the end, the base mac mini is a entry computer. The late 2009 base model is for people who are on a budget and what to make the jump to mac, this is a great offering thanks to the recent upgrades apple did this year. It saves power, it uses your existing mouse and keyboard, and you can really use it for all kinds of things. If you have some computer savvy in upgrading, I suggest getting this model and use the savings to get a memory upgrade. Dont worry about mixing memory chips. the mini will compensate. I spent 100 dollars in upgrade parts, bringing my total to $650. IF you are not so computer upgrader happy, this unit will do the job. You wont feel any problems unless you surf the net, use office 2008, play itunes, while copying DVDs. If you are a massive multi tasker, get the 2.53 Ghz Mac mini with 4GB and a 320 HD for an extra 200.

This is a great buy, dont hesitate. You will not be sorry. I've had mine for 2 weeks, and its has not been off since then. It goes on sleep mode automatically when its idle and autowakes up with me!
