Netbook Buyer’s Guide

When it comes time to buy a Netbook, there are lots of thing you have to consider, hope this article will help you find the model for you and makes the investment worthwhile. “Consumers no longer have to pay a big money for smallness and thinness”. First off all know the difference between a Netbook and normal laptop. Netbooks themselves are different from other computers because they are quite small, they are about half the size of other traditional laptops. People like Netbooks because they are easy to carry and travel with: This is especially important for those who need computer access while on business and for students.


  1. Think about the size of the screen. Experts say that screens nine inches and over will result in a normal viewing experience: anything smaller may result in more scrolling to see an entire website or image. However, if you value a small size and don’t mind that you can’t see a whole web page, then you can invest in a screen that is smaller than nine inches. So, if you want a Netbook that is sure to be easy to use and has more disk space, then you should consider high end models that have screens above nine inches in size.
  2. Netbook Keyboards are small in size, there are some keyboards that are near traditional sized, If you ar planning to do lot of word processing on your Netbook, I recommend you have to experience the keyboards before you decide on a model for you. It may take you time to adjust to the new size of the keyboard. However, you do want to make sure that using the keyboard isn’t painful or near impossible.
  3. Think about the Netbook’s battery. If you plan on traveling a lot, you will need a Netbook with long battery life. The more cells a battery has, the longer it will last. For example, a 3 cell battery may last for four hours whereas a 6-cell battery will last double this
  4. Some people talk about Netbook as a media player. Remember, these little kids do not have optical drives (CD, DVD). If you want to play movies on it, you’re either looking at movie files on your hard drive, an external optical drive, or maybe you have to go online.
  5. All Netbooks on the market today support Wi-Fi wireless networking and Some also include Ethernet and/or modem ports, for broadband or dial-up Internet access.

Note:-

  • If you’re looking for a simple computer that does basic tasks, and if You work on the go and want to stay mobile, get the Netbook.
  • If you want potable, powerful computer that will run all the same applications as your desktop do and all you want to do is play games, then buy a big laptop
