$600 to spend. Netbook or Laptop?

**bloggerz** · 12-09-2010, 07:59 AM

if you don't plan on doing work on it then get the netbook it seems you will enjoy it more for your purposes

but if you plan on working on it then a netbook is a bitch with the small keyboard and screen.

Ive been using a 12.1 mini-notebook and love it. Its around 3 lbs, battery lasts 5 hours and the screen size is much more productive than a netbook

you can get dell 1018 for some 300-350$ that will finish the job..

sounds like all you need is a netbook. 6-8 hour battery life.

I'd recommend the Asus netbooks, they run about 250 - 430 on newegg.

I was thinking netbook due to very low price, but Dell has their
Inspiron 15R for $499 with a Core i3 and 4GB DDR3-1333 memory. That's ridiculously good!

Netbook with 11.6" or 12"

**MrPotatoBread** · 12-09-2010, 10:19 AM

netbook for sure is the way I'd go.

**Frasier** · 12-09-2010, 11:24 AM

I love my netbook

**punker barbie** · 12-09-2010, 11:27 AM

**icymelon** · 12-09-2010, 11:30 AM

$250 netbook. I love mine. or go 800 and get ipad. I'm not an apply guy but everyone loves those

The small screen netbooks are great for surfing/mail/messaging but for doing any real work, the lack of screen size make it near impossible (for me anyway).
