"Decent "Netbook" " or whatever they are called these days?
 
Anybody recommend a decent one?

For traveling mostly and such.


Thx

Asus EEPC Seashell

For 300 buck you can't beat it.

Those things are for shit. Can a laptop with some real hardware for not much more money. It isn't much harder to travel with a 15 inch laptop.

CYF 03-17-2010 10:46 PM

I have a macbook, but I bring my netbook everywhere I go. Easier to carry when it's in a sleeve as opposed to a full laptop in a bag. Plus if it's lost or stolen, you're only out 300 bucks instead of 1200 or more.

I have an Asus 1005HA, and I love it. Runs about 300 bucks, 8 hour battery life. Similar to the one posted above but I've never used that model.

I´m waiting to see the rolltop... for now Im still with my sony vaio...

hypedough 03-18-2010 01:12 AM

I have an MSI Wind running Mac OS X 10.6.2 and its pretty damn stable and cheap as hell to boot.

bbobby86 03-18-2010 01:28 AM

i recommend Asus Eee PC 1201n... highly recommend... it is under $500...
And if you have over $1000... Mac Book Air... or some 13' Mac Book...

plsureking 03-18-2010 01:47 AM

ive owned a few netbooks.
this is my next one. i tested it at the store and it beats them all.

it'll even beat out an ipad since it is a laptop OR a tablet.
ipad is only a (low res, low power) tablet.

I'm happy with MSI Wind so far, but going to look for netbook with bigger screen and resolution soon :)

Broda 03-18-2010 07:42 AM

Look at resolution. Those 1024x600 are crap and 1366x768 is too small a height for me.
I got a HP dv1110 with a 12.1" 1280x800 monitor. Not tiny but still pretty small - and a great screen with a usable resolution.

candyflip 03-18-2010 08:56 AM

That little Lenovo is hot. I've got a Dell Mini 10v now, upgraded from the 9. It runs OSX (simple to install) and fits in the diaper bag when we leave the house. It's always with us.

fris 03-18-2010 09:04 AM

i have a dell mini 10v, like it, dont use it that much only when i travel

BradM 03-18-2010 09:30 AM

minddust 03-18-2010 09:34 AM

Cute conversation starters = potential poon. Didn't you know that?

Oracle Porn 03-18-2010 09:49 AM

asus will be you best choice, if you need bigger monitor then 10" check out the ASUS UL30 a bit expensive but very light, big screen (13") and good hardware unlike netbooks

I got my mom a dell mini 9 and she loves it. I ended up getting her a wireless mouse and keyboard for when she has it set up at home it makes typing a lot easier since its a slightly condensed keyboard.

oh it was $150 brand new in box from craigslist

Honez 03-18-2010 11:24 AM

ASUS Eee PC 1005HA is what I got for Christmas. One reason I love it is that the keyboard is still 'normal' sized. Can't go wrong with the price and it works perfect for traveling.

dallasnovelty 03-18-2010 12:08 PM

I am on my Gateway LT2022u netbook and have had it since dec with no issues. i left xp pro installed and it runs photoshop perfectly and can have almost as much stuff open as my desk monster and i only $229

u-Bob 03-18-2010 12:11 PM

Asus eee pc 1005.

the battery life is pretty impressive on my wife's asus. To the point where I'm saying "isn't this thing ever gonna die?"

same model that I have. It's actually 92% of the size of a normal keyboard, but it's so close that I don't notice much of a difference.

I really like the 1005ha, I checked out a couple and that's what I went with.

I get crazy battery life on my Acer Aspire One. It's not very powerful but it's perfect for browsing and emails.

I find the different between my 14.5inch and 10.5 inch HUGE. They are just so handy and easy to travel with. I LOVE MY NETBOOK. Was gonna pick up a massive 17" Toshiba Qosmio a little after getting my little NB-200, have no intention of doing that now. No need. They are just awesome for on the go use.

my aspire lasts 2-3 hours if im lucky. watching videos even less. i installed winXP on it but the memory wasn't enough. had to take it apart to bump the mem. i wasnt impressed with that one.

have a macbook pro and asus. the asus for size and weight is cool but too small to type for the long run. dell's usually are pretty nice though

Maybe you have an older model? I get close to 7 on mine, less if watching movies I guess, but I don't really use it for movies.

edit: Yeah, different model. I didn't have to take it apart for the RAM upgrade. There's a little door that opens up for it.
