Shopping for a notebook
 

Good morning GFY'ers!

Been looking for a notebook and thought i'd ask your opinion...

I need something basic but fast when it comes to browsing, light in weight and with at least 9 hours of battery without having to charge it...

The one i am looking at right now is the "Toshiba NB205-N210 Netbook 160GB, 10" LCD " which is about $350 with shipping

can you recommend anything else?

Have you checked out the Samsung models they are around $50 more in price but spec wise they are pretty similar and they look a lot better design wise i think :)

maybe some MSI... MSI X320...

Dell or Mac Book ..
I am a mac user but have had Dell .. both are great . reliable and decent warranty .

Get yourself a Dell!

I keep hearing that Dell sucks bad
Why do you like Dell exactly?

What do you think about that list posted on http://www.pcworld.com/product/revie...d=6&sort_by=1?

Thanks again for the help

The samsung netbook is awesome 10 hours of battery VGA, HDMI and other shit in it

I just sold a samsung n10 netbook I got free with a phone deal. It looked pretty cool but they're a bit too small for me. I even plug my 13" dell into a 22" screen.

Gonna look at samsung now
thanks

I have a Dell but mine is a 17inch. Big as hell but the battery is about 8 to 9 hours and is great. 2nd dell for me.
