...anyone use a netbook here?
Looking for a low consumption simple solution to run my weather stations. The "pc" needs a USB connection, simple processing, and WIFI connection to FTP to my sites and autotweet.
Seems a netbook would take less power (want it to be charged via solar) and give off less heat than a laptop and besides being cheap should last a long time too. Anyone have any experience with net books? Would also like to put on a simple webcam to take snapshots that refresh every few minutes (dynamic IP on one location). What dirt cheap/freeware can do this especially if I want to watermark the feed that gets FTPed to a web site? |

Get one with the AMD C-50 processor, it's a dual core for netbooks. Also get something you can easily upgrade the ram on and they aren't so bad really. I can even photoshop on mine.. I have one of these http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16834215174

I've had an asus eeepc for about 2 years now and love it. Battery lasts about 6 hours on a charge, very small and easy to bring with you. Definitely recommend it.
