Amazing combination of price and performance. Sophisticated

The editors didn't like
Gets a little hot
White plastics give this serious computer a "toylike" appearance
Only two USB ports
3cell battery is nice
6cell battery would be better
Quick Start OS is nice
But not entirely practical
What happened to Bluetooth?
Small keyboard
Warm temperatures
Short battery life
Funky keyboard
Loud track buttons
Mediocre base specifications
Needs a bigger battery. Noisy mouse buttons. Its 90 percent keyboard falls short of the competition.
Runs Very Warm
Only Available With ThreeCell Battery
Just Two USB Ports Due to ExpressCard Slot
Small trackpad
And they’re on opposite sides of the machine.
No SSD hard drive options
Unimpressive battery life.
Cramped keyboard
No extended battery option
No optical drive
White laptop
White power brick
Black power cable

I didnt love it, but I didnt hate it. It has a lot of nice features at this price point and the connectivity isnt the worst, and carrying a nice LED 10.2” LCD is also great. However, I feel that there could be some improvements on some aspect...

I am very impressed with the IdeaPad. It has to be one of the better choices when it comes to buying a netbook. One thing that really stands out that you do not see on other netbooks is the ExpressCard slot. This gives you a lot of expandability optio...
Lenovos IdeaPad S10 is unique enough to turn some heads for those looking to purchase a netbook in an increasingly saturated market. Its definitely a sharp little system, design wise, and we think that in some of the more unique Lenovo color offerin...
Abstract: While companies like Asus, MSI, and Acer have done a very good job of creating, and subsequently populating the netbook field we are still seeing new entrants. The big two that we have been hearing about for months (and possibly delaying purchases unti...

If you're looking for a big, beefy hard drive and surprisingly sprightly performance from a mini-notebook, the Lenovo IdeaPad S10 is a solid pick. If the S10's slightly cramped keyboard and loose mouse buttons are deal breakers for you, Asus's Eee 100...
