A netbook with some processing power
At only 3.8lbs the Averatec N3400 13.3" ultraportable sits at the heavy end of the netbook spectrum but it also houses a dual core Intel T3400, which will give you noticeably more power than an Atom. Intel's GMA4500 graphics powers the 1280x800 display so don't expect the power of a gaming notebook but in Tech Spot's testing found it powerful eno...

Best bang for the buck from AMD
With all of these new AMD GPUs and the incredible scaling we are seeing, it is going to take some work to determine just how to spend your money. The HD 5770 is usually found at the $160 mark, the HD 5750 at $130; compared to the $260 HD 5850 and the $390 HD 5870, the price differences are large enough that buying a pair of cheaper cards will stil...
