    For those of you interested in the X100e, Peter over at Netbooked.net has posted his impressions....

    Overall seems to be positive, though he does mention the caveats of going with the single core AMD processor (it's not that fast and it takes a hit in terms of battery life) over the Intel CULV. Something the dual core versions will fix (though possibly at the expense of battery life)?

    You know I actually have to disagree. Wasn't this system supposed to be a "high end" netbook? If I'm interpreting the benchmarks correctly, it provides no performance benefit, yet has pretty poor battery life compared to the competition. The selling point to newer Netbooks is that they had really good battery life, even more true with the N400 series Atoms. If they were billing this "better than a netbook" I view the findings in this review to be rather disappointing...
