Subnotebooks often cost twice as much as standard sized notebooks. While many of us would like to take a load off our feet and backs when traveling or simply have no need for a large notebook, high prices mean that the average 8 lb. notebook is what we'll end up with. Enter the attractive and affordable ASUS S5Ne, which you can find at more competitive online retailers for around $1,400. The ASUS weighs a mere 2.8 lbs., making it one of the lightest notebooks available. This model boasts a 1 GHz Centrino processor, WiFi, 12.1" XGA display, an SD/Memory Stick slot and plenty of ports. Not only that, it comes with an external slim DVD/CDRW and a wireless mouse.
