Both IDC and Gartner have released their preliminary figures on the state of the US and worldwide PC market, and while both companies agree that overall, the market declined about 3-5% worldwide, they differ when it comes to the figures of Apple. Quite interesting.

I've always thought, "Oh they are so cute. I just want one.", but my household's 3 Macbooks are doing up just fine.
Are you netbook owners still happy with your purchases?
The people I know who are purchasing Netbooks tend to be people who have as their primary computer a desktop and simply want a low cost, light weight laptop. The problem is if you buy a traditional light weight laptop it will be almost NZ$3K for it. Netbooks give people what they want at a low price.
I know I've seen many students around university have it to take their notes but their main computer is a desktop one; if you've already got a laptop, though, its a hard pressed thing to justify purchasing a MacBook and even more difficult if you're in my position where I already have a desktop and a laptop.
