Asus 1215N Netbook

For campus trekkers needing a work device that travels easily and comes with a relatively inexpensive price tag, Asus' 1215N Netbook could be just the ticket. Packing a bit more punch than other netbooks on the market, the 1215N includes a dual-core Atom D525 1.8GHz processor and 500GB of web storage. The 12-inch HD LED-backlit screen flips between a standard Intel graphics chipset for basic computing tasks to conserve battery life and a more advanced NVIDIA ION discrete graphics chip for more exhaustive tasks like video or gaming. The 1215N also comes with built-in webcam with lens cover for added privacy.

Price: $550
