Samsung NC20 stands out

The Samsung NC20 is now available in Australia and PC Authority has taken a look to see how it stacks up against its biggest rival, the Dell Inspiron Mini 12. Like most reviewers, the screen quality and size and the keyboard are all great draw points, as is the performance and battery life.

"Whichever way you cut it, the NC20 blurs the line between ultraportable and netbook with impressive aplomb. The higher screen resolution is a significant step up and this, coupled with good performance and great battery life, makes the NC20 an ideal travelling companion. A netbook success for Samsung's first entry."
