Golden Netbook by Caszh – Another cloned material or fake bling?

This is yet another netbook which should be added in the row of cloned netbooks/laptops. Caszh CA-L11A, a golden colored 11.6-inch netbook that sports a surprisingly well designed chiclet keyboard. It even features 1366×768 resolution on its 11.6-inch display. Other than that, it has fairly basic netbooks specs: Intel Atom N270 processor, 1GB RAM, 160GB HDD etc.

Price: under $200! We are very sure that no netbook manufacture can beat that price

Upon close investigation, we were able to make out that this Caszh netbook has the exact same keyboard as found in Macbook Air.

HP Mini 1000 Vivienne Tam Edition netbook cloned

The HP Mini 1000 Vivienne Tam Edition netbook, one of the most expensive netbooks on the market when it was launched late last year costed somewhere around $700. HP had a simple reason for such high price:Red color and floral pattern on the lid of designer Vivienne Tam.

Although HP is no longer selling the Mini 1000 and the Vivienne Tam Edition, but you can get a cheap clone of it that is made by Qifang Electronics. The main differences lies in a 2.5 inch hard drive instead of a 1.8 inch HDD, and the clone costs about $300, or less than half the MSRP of the original.
