RM Asus miniBook

You'd think it's a bit of a stretch to call a laptop a gadget but not so with this dainty offering from Asus, which is aptly called the miniBook.

The dinky laptop weighs in at 0.92kg, its dimensions are a roughly book-sized 22.5cm x 3.5cm x 16.5cm and it has a built in webcam should you fancy doing a spot of vlogging. The miniBook also has a svelte price-tag of around £200 as it runs Linux so saves on software licensing costs.

So if we can't have the $100 laptop, we want one of these please Santa...
