One specification that floored us is the full terabyte of hard drive space

The X305 handled our iTunes and Windows Media encoding tests with aplomb, quickly completing the tests in 3 minutes and 28 seconds and 3 minutes and 46 seconds, respectively.

A score of 11,182 on our Cinebench 10 test also took top honors, nearly doubling that of the previous leader, the Lenovo ThinkPad W700.

An assortment of tips lets you customize the stylus to give you the feel of writing (though writing onscreen still can’t match the feel of pen-on-paper), and the screen is smart enough to ignore your hand resting on the panel, so you don’t have to hover your hand above the surface.

Ultimately, the UC7807u’s hefty weight and short battery life might limit its portability—and therefore its usefulness—to some.

But if those aren’t issues for you, and you love the idea of a stylish 13-inch notebook that will meet basic computing needs at an ultra-low price, your search ends here.

Icons on the Disney Desktop are twice the size of the standard XP desktop’s icons, which is great for kids but tough luck for adults, who will deal mostly with the teeny icons.

Its score of 5,902 on FutureMark’s PCMark Vantage test is the highest we’ve seen to date, as is its PCMark05 score of 7,889.

While we’d like to see better integration of the Blu-ray capabilities and better graphics performance, its solid array of ports, long battery life, and striking design make this one impressive machine.

The N270 held its own on Cinebench 10 with a score of 847, edging out the Asus Eee PC 1002HA by just 3 points but falling short of the Samsung NC20 by 35 points.

Graphics performance is par for course, at 121 on our 3DMark06 test at its native resolution. This is 19 points higher than the latest netbook average but still short of the NC20’s 132.

One specification that floored us is the full terabyte of hard drive space, divided into four partitions on two physical notebook drives. One partition is expressly for the operating system; the rest are for the whims of the user.
