When you’ve been buying replacement cartridges for your printer, you know how important buying the right cartridge is. But not every UK consumer knows this. Here’s short guide on printers. You either own or buy a laser printer or an inkjet printer. You must get Laser toner cartridges for the former and inkjet cartridges for the latter. These printers are different from each other and use different cartridges. Laser toner cartridges are casings for dry powder that can be used on any kind of paper. You can save money, in the long run, when you use laser printers. Their toners last for years at a time before needing replacement, unlike their inkjet counterparts. If you don’t require massive quantities of printouts fast, inkjet printers are just right for you. Keep in mind that replacing laser toner cartridges and inkjet cartridges can still be expensive, unless you buy remanufactured cartridges.

Slashgear has one of the new Lenovo Thinpad X100e netbooks. Their review unit was equipped with a 1.6GHz AMD Athlon Neo MV-40 CPU, 2GB of RAM and a 160GB 5,400rpm hard-drive. Graphics courtesy of an ATI Radeon HD3200 chipset, and the battery is a 6-cell 2,600mAh pack which Lenovo rates for up to 5hrs runtime. Connectivity was provided by WiFi b/g/n (Bluetooth is a $20 option, not present on our unit), three USB 2.0 ports (one of which is powered), VGA, a combo mic/headphone socket and gigabit ethernet. So what did they think of the X100e? Pros: - Very usable design. Keyboard feel and response best in class for ultraportables / netbooks. - Matte 11.6-inch 1366 x 768 HD Ready panel, LED backlit display excellent and no glare. Cons: - Noisy fan, casing gets hot to touch. - Build quality reveals the budget nature of the X100e. - 6 cell battery only provided about 3 hours of runtime.

I have a Gateway LT2030U netbook that I bought from Best Buy. I upgraded the RAM to 2gb which has definitely helped the speed, but I am thinking of making it better still. Is is possible to upgrade the processor to something better than the stock Intel Atom N270? If so, what would be the fastest processor for a netbook, and would it be easy to install? Thanks!

We just posted a first look at the new Alienware M11x gaming netbook yesterday and already there’s video of it in action -playing Left 4 Dead 2. Using a yet unamed Core 2 Duo processor and switchable Nvidia GT335M graphics the video (after the break) shows it playing Left 4 Dead 2 at around 50 FPS, at the native 1366 x 768 resolution, high settings with no AA. Now I’m no gamer, but that seems pretty impressive. Can’t wait to see this one hit UK shores. Check out the vid after the break.

Alienware, now a part of Dell, has apparently been working on this Alienware M11x thin and light / netbook gaming machine for 5 years according to a post on the Direct2Dell blog today. Technically, we should call this a ‘thin and light’ since it features a Core 2 processor and an 11.6″ screen vs. the ubiquitous Atom processor and 10″ screen that define the netbook segment. Specifically, this ultra-portable gaming machine from Alienware will pack an Intel Core 2 Duo CULV processor mated with NVIDIA 335M graphics and a 11.6 inch with 1366 x 768 pixel resolution. According to the company, it will be able to play modern games including Call of Duty 4 and Left 4 Dead 2. There’s no launch date, or price from Alienware or Dell directly yet, but Engadget noticed a price of $799 in the source code of one of their web pages.

I’m a writer and I’d love to have a small laptop to work on when I’m away from my desktop. Basically I’m looking for the digital equivalent of a notebook (I have atrocious writing). All I really want to use on it, besides the web browser, is Microsoft Word and a script-writing program called Movie Magic Screenwriter. Can a netbook handle those kinds of programs, or is it exclusively for internet use?
