Review: ASUS UL50VT-A1 Thin and, “Almost” a Macbook..

“Almost” a Macbook killer…but for 1/2 the price, I’ll take it.
I watch the tech market fairly closely. My wife has the 13″ Macbook (newer LED aluminium one) and really I love it…the “two finger scrolling” is wonderful, but I need a PC for work.

Acer One D250 with Windows 7
Update (17 Nov 09): After a fair amount of travel I stick by my initial rating. Construction is solid and I have had no issues, even after it has been thrown around a bit with my carry-on. Also, you shouldn’t have to worry about the “big” battery sticking [...]

Capable value notebook
(Re-wrote this review 12/6/09)
This is an excellent budget notebook with a 15.6″ screen that’s only 5.8 lbs. We just bought two for my wife’s parents (don’t buy it for 3D games, as it has integrated graphics, but office apps and browsing are fine).
Pros:
- T6600 Core 2 Duo (not the Pentium Dual Core, [...]

Great little machine
My Seashell arrived Friday. The first hour or two I was unsure as my primary PC (work) is a Lenovo T400. This was so small.
After spending time getting used to the size and organizing the features to my preferences - I fell in love. It is exactly what I had hoped it would [...]
