The problem with netbooks is that they were designed for
third world countries and the needs of a low tech
populous. They suck here. If you want to do anything other
than check eMail and web browse they are really nasty at
it.
If Apple came out with a really neat unit at around $699.
they would own this market. The thing about Apple is
whatever it comes out with will have the features most
people want and some that we didn't know we wanted but
find out quickly that we do and it will be much cooler than
anything else on the market. Having switched 2 years ago
from windows to Macintosh I will be holding off on a
netbook purchase until Apple does something in this
arena. I don't mind paying for quality and right now the
only laptops worth my look are priced above $1000. You
get what you pay for and the current shark feeding of
netbooks are seriously lacking.
