I am logging in for the first time on my new dell mini inspiron. So far it is great. The screen is lovely, the touch is fabulous and the webcam is good too. I can't believe it. Perfect! Price RM999.
This is the third netbook I have, the second is a lenovo netbook. The keyboard was uneven, kept missing certain letters when typing, the sound was too soft and the webcam was not usable at all. Couldn't use it for skype. I bought this last year for RM1,300.
The first netbook I had was an asus 7 inch. That was fun when it was released a few years ago. The sound was great and I could skype although there was no webcam. The keys were not great though, very stiff and couldn't type the letter d without intentionally pressing it. And the space tab was worse, giving me thumb fatigue. It was about RM800.
Why this obsession with netbooks? Well, I love being mobile and went on a quest to search for something I could work on effectively and at the same time light enough to lug around without hurting my back. So you have a lower back problem like I do, dell mini inspiron is the one. Look no further.
I am glad that with a good touchpad I am truly mobile without having to bring a mouse along.
