Hey all,
I just got a new netbook yesterday (I’ve never even owned a laptop)
It’s an ASUS PC1000HE, with a battery that they claim can last 9.5 hours. Realistically, it’s more like 6-7, since I will be using wifi almost all the time it is on. But it’s a great feel, nice not-too-small keyboard.
I thought I would express my glee.
I got it for $374 at Amazon.
thanks. I brought it with me on the annual trip to the SEC Mens’ basketball tourney with my Dad and 2 brothers. The wifi was pretty crappy in the hotel, and spotty in the arena, but I am delighted with the size, the feel, and the battery life, which seems to be living up to the 7 plus I expected (since 9.5 is probably with next to no extras like wifi and brighter screen settings, etc. But it has performed well in the week I have had it. The weather in Tampa was perfect.
Nice! I dig the rich blue, too.
