Although it may not be green in colour, the CherryPal mini laptop is considered to be an eco friendly computer, why? Simply because it is easy on the power, and will not be using stacks of electricity to keep it going.

These small machines are ideal for use while travelling, provided that you are able to get a decent broadband connection. The idea is to use the Cloud for all of your services as this will not use up all of the 4 Gb on the drive.
