Netbooks have quite a few things going for them. They are extremely lightweight and portable, typically affordable, and more recent models come with full size keyboards, larger displays and great battery life. But for all their advantages and evolution in recent years, they still lack in one key category: processing power.I know several people who have steered clear of netbooks for this reason alone, and with just cause. Anything more than basic tasks like word processing, Internetsurfing, email, music or standard definition video playback and these systems will quickly begin to feel inadequate.
