Serious Endurance.

Get them a netbook that can last an entire cross-country flight—and back again. That’s what Samsung is promising with its sleek new N140, thanks to its high-capacity, six-cell battery and energy efficient, LED-backlit 10-inch display. Decked out with silver accents, this 2.8-pound mini is available in Burgundy/Black or Sapphire Blue/Black, and runs Windows 7 Starter Edition. You also get three USB ports, an integrated webcam, and a 3-in-1 memory card reader.
