[QUOTE="IronWolf, post: 5348538, member: 21076"] With the holidays coming up I expect to see a lot of less expensive laptops on the market. I believe newegg.com recently had an Acer on sale with a good sized hard drive, 4GB of RAM, decent processor for $399. I wouldn't be surprised to see several more retailers with pricing like that this holiday season as they try to ramp up their sales. Granted the laptop is bigger than the Netbook, but if you are planning on primarily using this new device the larger screen might be nice. I like my netbook, but I generally only use it when I happen to be traveling or other odd times. Otherwise I will just grab my laptop and use it. Definitely head to your local electronics store and take a look at what they have in both netbooks and laptops. Type a little on them, open some files up and get a feel for it and see which you think would serve your needs best. [/QUOTE]
