I am looking to getting a netbook for myself I would mostly use it for school. This is what I got as a description, 1.6GHz Intel Atom N270 processor, 1GB DDR2 533 SDRAM, and 160GB hard drive, it’s got all the speed and storage you need on the go. The Webcam and 802.11b/g WLAN allow you to catch up and conduct business from any location, and the multi-in-one card reader makes it easy to transfer data to and from your main PC. From Acer.
The 4GB USB flash drive helps save hard drive space, loaded with fun and helpful software titles like Greeting Card Factory Express 7, Sudoku Puzzle Addict, ThinkFree Office 3, and many more.







Most netbooks do not have a CD/DVD aka optical drive or an ethernet port, but, in general, they may be smaller and lighter than a notebook computer. Since the notebook is becoming lighter and smaller as well, there may not be all that much difference between the two in the future.
