The *netbook* is a niche product

Accordingly, some posters have theorized that there are some netbooks
out there that are not crap. They also quoted prices for such
non-crappy netbooks that were close to the price of the MBA.

Yeah. That was Betty. An Apple-head.

I'm not an Apple head, not even a MacHead. Silly.

I use the best tool I can afford for the job--any platform. I use whatever works best, has the fewest problems, needs least tech support. Or I use whatever is given to me free.

The MBA is a lightweight notebook [3 lb] that weighs less than the ASUS Eee 1000HE [3.25 lb], around the same as the HP Mini Note [depending on configuration], same as MSI Wind. Yes, you can have a lightweight computer that runs plenty of full versions of software without choking, and the screen/resolution is easy on the eyes too.

Unfortunately it won't fit in my cargo pocket so it's not for me.
