Thread: Notebook VS. Netbook

Hi Guy's
I have been using a Netbook for about 2-3 months. specifically i have a Ausu Eee PC, its got all the standard Netbook hardware intel N270 1GB RAM Chipset ETC. I also have a Dell Vorosto 1500 with Intel Centrino Dual 2.4GHz processor and 2GB RAM. So technically it was quite a step down, but i dont do any intense gaming, only Zuma and stuff like that so that wasn't a concern. i really only use my Netbook for the Internet (Chrome), MS Office Suit and music. im quite happy with the change. sure searching my itunes library is a little slower but thatd really it.

I was wondering if anyone else has made this switch and their thoughts on it?

I bought MSI Wind. It is very light and useful.
All I need for office and home uses.

Cons: It CAN NOT play HD movies 720p ;p lol... the graphic/ proc is too slow.

i have to say notebook.. because i just can't use the little things.. i need space for my hands.. nebook does not give me that room and plus it does not handle high level video or gaming.. so NOTEBOOk all the way

lenovo is to release a new netbook that will be able to play HD movies. It will come in October and come with Windows 7.

Lenovo S12
VIA Nano ULV 2250 processor and VIA Chrome9 HC3 graphics

Im waiting for it to come out to buy one.

I love my little netbook. It's an eeePC 900A. I use it for taking notes in school, internet browsing, mild torrenting, and even some gaming. It runs any Quake3 engine game and earlier perfectly and is a perfect size to just carry around. I haven't found a notebook that I'd prefer to it yet.

Really, i use to love that game! I might in light of your post find my copy and see how it goes, how does it run?
Have any other games that go alright on your netbook?

Hard to say depends if you want performance or potability

Netbook is fun to take to school, use it in a train or just in front of tv. But desktop is still the best.
I bought a fast vaio notebook, and I switched back to desktop in 2 weeks. I also own a netbook but never use it.

never used one but is a netbook more than a glorified browser? I saw the specs and the OS options and that came to mind but I haven't looked at them in a while though.
