Among a group of new notebook models introduced by Gateway recently is this — the Gateway LT1001i — an 8.9-inch netbook that packs an Intel Atom N270 processor and other basic netbook features. It comes with Windows XP Home Edition pre-installed, and has 1GB of RAM, a 160GB HDD, 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi, Intel’s Mobile 945GSE Express Chipset, built-in Bluetooth, webcam, and card reader. It weighs just 2.2 lbs and costs just quite a bit over $400. This doesn’t have enough to beat the Acer Aspire One, but should be good for those who want to be different.

Acer Takes a Stab on the Eee PC with the ZX 2300

Acer was pretty successful in competing against the Eee PC with the Aspire one. And it is about to challenge Asus anew with the upcoming 10-inch Aspire One which will go up against Eee PC 1000 series. What it lacks so far is a product that will compete directly with Asus’ Eee Top. Until now, as Acer announced that it will soon be releasing the ZX2300 all-in-one PC.

Actually, the ZX2300 is an all-in-one PC made by Gateway, a company which Acer recently bought. So, when it goes up against the Eee Top, it’s simply again a battle between Acer and Asus.

Anyway, enough of the rivalry stuff and let’s see what the Acer/Gateway has to offer us.

  • 18.5-inch LCD goodness
  • AMD Athlon 2560e processor
  • 1GB of RAM, 160GB HDD
  • ATI X1200 graphics
  • USB ports
  • WiFi
  • webcam,
  • card reader
  • 16x Lightscribe DVD burner.

Unfortunately, the ZX2300’s LCD is not touchscreen. And it will sell for around $530. If you’re not really looking forward to the touchscreen features of the Eee Top, and would rather have a bigger screen, then you’d be better off with the ZX2300.

Due to be launched in Japan towards the end of the month, the new Gateway netbook will be called the ‘LT1001j’. Of course, as we’ve said in previous reports Acer are the parent company of Gateway, so the LT1001j has been labelled by some as a brother or cousin of the Acer Aspire One.

The Gateway netbook, the company’s first netbook release in Japan, will be powered by an Intel Atom N270 1.6GHz processor and will be fitted with an 8.9 inch WSVGA display. Gateway will install Windows XP and 1GB of RAM in the LT1001j and with a 160GB hard drive for storage, this could be a successful debut netbook for the company on Japanese shores.
