geeksugar's Guide to Mini Notebooks!

Although I've said before that I wouldn't ditch my computer for a slim and watered-down netbook, I can see the appeal. For some folks, toting around a five pound machine conjures up thoughts of neck stiffness and shoulder realignments, while spending upwards of $1700 for an ultra-light MacBook Air can really break the bank, especially in these volatile economic times. And whether or not Steve Jobs thinks that netbooks are gaining in popularity, the fact remains that they are! So if you are going to spend your hard earned cash on a tiny mini netbook, the least I could do is help you decide which one is right for you. Check out my guide to the best mini notebooks out there on the market today. No need to thank me, it's all in a day's work.

Good timing. I was just looking at mini noteboooks last weekend. I want one just for writing on the go, so it has to be light and cheap but the keyboard has to be big enough...dilemna!

I'm really attached to my black macbook. Now when the macbook air becomes as awesome as a standard macbook, then yes.
