Summary: Toshiba's 8.9in. NB100 is affordable even for a netbook, especially if you choose the entry-level model running Ubuntu remix.

Toshiba, like pretty much every other notebook manufacturer, has recently entered the netbook market. Toshiba refers to its NB100 series as 'mini laptops' and currently lists four models at its UK web site.

We got our hands on the least expensive of them, the NB100-11R. This is the only one of the quartet to run Ubuntu — the rest run Windows XP.

Our NB100-11R comes in at a very reasonable £189 (ex. VAT), with prices rising to £373 for the most expensive model.
