Quote:Anyone have a netbook? Other than gaming what are the other disadvantages?
Netbooks are essentially as powerful as an old Pentium III 1000 or so. That's really all you need for doing word, excel, internet, email, etc... but doing anything more than that (photoshop, gaming, watching 1080p h.264 movies, etc...) becomes an issue.
That's really all you need to know. If you can do what you need with a ~1GHz processor, the netbook will work for you. If you can't, then you either need a second computer or your one computer needs to be more powerful than a netbook.
