Whenever I get a new laptop for review, I tend to carry out a highly unscientific test that I like to call the backpack test. I put the laptop/notebook in my well-worn backpack, jump on my bike, then cycle the 10km to work with it on my back. If Ive g...

It's difficult to think of a single major notebook manufacturer who hasn't also brought out a netbook by now. Unfortunately, in their haste to get on the mini-mobile-PC bandwagon, many of them have sacrificed considerations like ergonomics. Initially, it...

There are netbooks that have a curvy, kid-friendly look. Others are sleek and shiny - every one aimed at adults. Then there are blocky, serious looking ones, carved with no concession to consumer levity and fluff because the manufacturer reckons thats...
Its not the sexiest netbook out there, quite the reverse, but the NB100 is no slouch when running at standard speed and delivers a good battery life too. Its by no means a bad machine. We just wish Toshiba had come up with something a little less du...

There’s a huge amount to like about the NB100, Toshiba’s first netbook. Here in Australia, unlike in the UK where a slick custom Ubuntu Linux implementation is available, you only have the option of Windows XP Home on the NB100. With that, you get dece...

The only real decision you have to make when choosing a netbook is screen size. Do you go for a super portable but slightly cramped 8.9-incher, like the Toshiba NB100, or a comfortable but larger 10-incher? Although the Toshiba shares exactly the same...

Joining the throng of compact-and-affordable notebook PC makers is Toshiba, with its little Toshiba NB100-11R laptop. The Toshiba NB100-11R really is small, at only 225m across and weighing a shade over 1kg. While Linux was the de-facto operating sy...
The Toshiba NB100-11R is a well-made and smart-looking example of how to make a powerful mini laptop – not powerful in the sense of raw processing power but by covering most users needs, out of the box, with a trim and reliable interface. Andrew Har...

Toshiba's NB100 is a Windows XP–based, 1kg netbook that is a little over-priced but well built and with some good functionality. It's one of the best options on the market for travellers; users who want a portable unit to watch videos and listen to music...

The NB100 is a little overpriced, but it is a solid little unit with Sleep-and-Charge USB ports, which are very convenient while travelling. It could use more RAM and a solid-state drive; a version with Linux installed would be pretty sweet, too...

Toshiba is just the latest manufacturer to join the netbook fray with this NB100. Two versions are available, in fact: the NB100-10X and the NB100-111. Both have an Intel Atom processor, but the former uses an 80 GB hard drive and 512 MB of RAM to ru...

Just like Dell with its Inspiron Mini 9, Toshiba has eased into the netbook fray with an 8.9in affair. Rather than offering a radical design, integrating 3G or supplying stunning specs, it's pinning its early hopes on reputation - a "netbook from a bra...

With over 20 machines available, it's fair to say the netbook party is in full swing, but it's still missing one or two of the big players. Toshiba is no longer one of them, having recently launched the NB100, and it's definitely a case of better late than never...
