The WinBook N4 follows a trend we have seen in our notebook reviews: desktop systems are faster than notebook ones. In the case of a benchmark like SYSMark 2002 Office Productivity, the decrease in speed can be attributed to a much slower I/O system like we proved in our ASUS T9 review. The WinBook N4 at 1.8GHz between a desktop 1.4GHz and a desktop 1.5GHz Willimatte system. The WinBook N4 did offer a significant performance increase of 20% over the Toshiba Satellite 1905-S277 most likely as a result of the N4's DDR memory bus and additional system memory.

Thanks to a higher SYSMark 2002 Internet Content Creation score, the overall SYSMark 2002 score of the WinBook N4 placed it at around a desktop 1.7GHz system. The system performed 6% slower than the desktop 1.8GHz Willimatte system (remember, the Mobile Pentium 4-M is based off the Northwood core that includes more L2 cache) but still outperformed the last desktop replacement notebook we looked at, the Toshiba Satellite 1905-S277 by 26%.
