What do you think about netbooks? Useful, wasteful, the perfect size for a little on-the-go computing or too damn small to be worth anything?
Grabbing a cute little computer so soon after getting my desktop resurrected seems to exceed my undefined budget for how many computers I can buy in any given 6-week span, but those little netbooks just seem... useful.
Or is this just a fad that I shouldn't waste money on?
( I spend my time wondering about this rather than doing schoolwork )
Thoughts? Observations? Opinions? If you have a netbook, how do you use it? Do you like it? Should I be scared of buying anything from Acer again (my current laptop is Acer) or would HP do me fine (my workhorse of a desktop was HP and lasted 7ish years)?
*goes back to schoolwork, no really*
EDIT: I asked Hunch.com if I should get one and it said 78% yes (I should).
