LG C1 Notebook to Tablet PC Convertible Review
Source: Notebookreview.com
The C1 Express Dual has a professional appearance and a solid design. It is a little on the expensive side, but it is cheaper than the Toshiba R400 ($3,999) and still maintains many of the same features. It feels sturdy, no cheap plastics to this Tablet, which is nice. It is so small and lightweight that you can take it anywhere and the battery life is good as well. I would recommend this Tablet to any user who travels a lot or for students. Like I said earlier though, the only problem is you can't get the C1 in the U.S. In fact my review unit came from Canada, so it may take some hunting to find one.

Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950: Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950 is an onboard integrated video chip and can be called a faster clocked GMA 900 (on Mobile Intel 945GM Express chipset, which is available only starting with Core Duo/Solo). 2006 it is the most often used graphics solution and is classified in the weakest third of mobile graphics solutions. So it can only be used for elder games. For office applications and surfing it is without any doubt sufficient.

Intel Core Duo: Intel Core Duo (successor of Pentium M), is a double core processor with a very good relation of performance to current consumption. The 2 MB L2 Cache are used common. The maximum current consumption of 31 Watts is only 4 W more then with Pentium M. Due to the low energy need is Core Duo also suited for subnotebooks. Further now it supports SSE3 orders. The performance can nearly be doubled for applications, which were designed for multiprocessors (compared with Pentium M).

U2500:

10.6": The notebook has a very small and rare display format for Subnotebooks. This format is used rather rarely.
The advantage is, that the subnotebook can be small dimensioned and can be carried easily. Further the tiny display has the advantage, that it needs few current, which improves the battery runtime and in consequence the mobility. The disadvantage is that the reading of texts is very exhausting vor the eyes. High resolutions can hardly be used.

1.3 kg: This subnotebook is one of the most lightweight of all notebooks and can be carried very easily. There exist only few sub-notebooks, which weight less. 10 inch displays are normal for this class of weight.

LG: LG is an international Notebook manufacturer of medium size. Sometimes LG notebooks achieve good positions according the total rating. LG laptaps achieve remarkably good ratings according the performance.
