Verdict
At first glance, the Archos 10 seems like a real bargain: it includes $100 worth of free software, and has a faster hard drive and boot time than many of its competitors, as well as better graphics performance. But for the same $399, many other 10-inch netbooks, including the Acer Aspire One AOD150 and the ASUS Eee PC 1000HE offer much longer battery life and more comfortable keyboards. Ultimately, the question is whether you’d rather pay a premium for better software or for more endurance and better ergonomics. We prefer longevity and comfort, but the Archos 10 is worth a look.
