There's a new hype going on in the world of computing. I used to call them 'tiny laptops', but somewhere along the way, Intel's marketing got at me and now I call them netbooks. Every self-respecting manufacturer has a netbook product line, or is about to introduce one (Apple?), so I figured I would take a look at what all the fuss is about: I bought a netbook.

Yeah, really - IMO, that's the most disappointing aspect of most of the netbooks I've seen/read about.
It seems that portables have backslid in that sense - E.g., I know several journalists who still wax nostalgic about their old Radio Shack Model 100s and how they could get 12 hours on four double A batteries.
