4/25/2009 3:42:59 PM
nah, i knew what i was getting intoi just didn't fully comprehend how small it was going to be

Is it one of those things that you use just for internet?
I've been toying with the idea of getting one of those things. Easier to carry around than a full size laptop, plus all I do is use Excel/Word and the internet when I'm out and about so its not like I need a ton of processing power.Plus, I hear they're easy to steal from Target, lol

netbooks are overrated. my wife had a 11" a couple years ago and i hated it. 13" is minimum size for me (not including my iphone. i use that as a laptop replacement for web browsing all the freakin time)[Edited on April 25, 2009 at 3:50 PM. Reason : no homo]

im using my Eee PC right nowits totally worth it imo. its slow and tiny and cramping and small HDD , but its very very cheap and the battery lasts a long time. the HDD is also solid state, so you can really beat the piss out of it and it will survive.i dont keep any sensitive files on it so i dont even worry about viruses or anything and just surf where i pleaseif it crashes, just re-installoh get the XP version . vista will turn it into a paperweight

im going to install windows 7 on it, assumin its doable and i dont accidentally swallow it first

You'll get used to it. I was using an Eee PC for a while, it was a 10" screen. It's so damn small, but then you get used to it and it's only moderately annoying. And then a 12" screen looks huge.And yeah, the battery life ROCKS. That's the one thing I miss.[Edited on April 25, 2009 at 7:01 PM. Reason : batt.]
