Asus G71V-7T043G review
May 28, 2009 by Insider Staff · 1 Comment
Asus doesn’t just make Eee PC netbooks – take the Asus G71V-7T043G . Doesn’t quite roll off the tongue the same way, but it packs a massive amount of tech underneath the Ferrari like bonnet. Just trust us that the latter isn’t a complement.

Acer Aspire One D250 gets official!
April 1, 2009 by Insider Staff · Leave a Comment
The Acer Aspire One D250 is the latest in a long line of manbag-sized laptops that have been released recently. Asus with its Eee PC range has been looking to dominate the market for some time now, but the likes of Acer haven’t given up, with the Aspire One D250 just the latest weapon in its armoury.
Because there are so many netbooks being chucked at us nowadays, they need something to help them stand out. Well the Acer Aspire One D250’s USP is its impossibly lithe body, measuring a pencil-thin 2.5cm at its thickest point!
On the inside it’s business as usual, with an Atom processor, optional 3G, up to 2GB RAM and a 160GB hard drive. It also has that 10.1-inch screen. Any bigger than that and it wouldn’t be able to call itself a netbook.
As you can see from the image it’s pretty good to look at too, Maybe not the Hollywood looks of the latest Eee PCs, but it’s certainly no Paul Scholes. So when’s it out? Well, it’s already on the shelves in Germany. But you can expect it out over here shortly, for the reasonable price of £350. Das ist gut, ja?
What do you think about the Acer Aspire One D250? Get chatting about it on the PriceRunner forums.
