Netbooks Come of Age

The most notable development in laptops this year is the introduction of the Netbook to the general market. This convenient mini-laptop category is perfect for traveling professionals, college students, and anyone else looking for max portability to satisfy their mobile computing needs. Of course, some will insist that a Netbook is inferior to traditional bulky laptops offered in previous years, but the point is subjective. As central processors continue to get faster and chips shrink in size, portability doesn’t come at quite the cost it would have in the recent past.
