wow that looks cool, but isn’t that too expensive?

I recommend the Acer Aspire One. The only other netbook I’ve seen in the same price range is one that I found to be slower and otherwise inferior.

@Thesexier First off, that got me a “page not found” error. Not surprising considering that stories about Apple netbooks are either rumors or jokes.
Second, Apple will NEVER EVER EVER EVER do a netbook; they consider netbooks “beneath them”. In fact, the $1000 Macbook is considered rather gauche.
Third, anything with an Apple logo is going to be expensive. I could go on, but I think I’ve made my point.

@Mical My neighbors HP Mini was more expensive than my AA1 and I was annoyed by it’s slowness. I still can’t figure out why that is since they use the same CPU and chipset, but the AA1 not only felt faster, benchmark scores show that it actually is quicker. Acer did something right.
