How's the netbooking going Paula? Are you still really liking it? I hope you still love it. I love my laptop, but mine has an 17 inch screen so it's a bit bigger and heavy at times...lol. I've seen those netbooks at Best Buys and they are just so cute!!!

I saw lots of netbooks at the conference this past weekend. The most popular was was the Eee netbook. That's the one my daughter has and she really loves it, but the right shift key is in the wrong place and it really messes me up when I'm trying to capitalize while typing. But I guess maybe you get used to it.

Yes I still like it alot!! It's so convenient. It only weighs about 2 and 1/2 lbs. The only thing that bothers me sometimes is my eyes. The screen is only 10.1", so it's very small. But all in all I'm so glad that I bought it. Mine is a HP mini. It's perfect for what I use it for which is just to go online or play an occasional game. I bought Yahtzee for it:D I play it way too much!

Yes Gayle the key board is small but you do get used to it. And it doesn't have numbers on the right side either, only on top. That was hard for me to get used to. But after a while it's no big deal.:)

Can you make the font bigger? I think you can on my laptop. It sounds great!
So portable.

I would love a Kindle reader, although a book is not all that heavy! It's just that you can download any book you want for about $10. It takes about a minute, and there it is. You can also set it to read to you if you're driving.

I didn't know they would read to you....how awesome is that?

I have a Lightbook and I love it, I am able to sit in the backyard and surf the net all day...:p

Janet 04-15-2010 04:24 PM

What is the differene between a netbook and a lightbook? Sometimes I'm so dense....

paula1961 04-16-2010 06:08 AM

No you are not dense Janet. I have never heard of a light book. I'm curious to find out too. I also hadn't heard of that reader that Judy was talking about. I think I need to get out more lol!

Janet 04-16-2010 01:53 PM

I need to get out more too....lol.
