Netbooks are awesome, tablets fail.
What a fag man, you cant use the xrandros os and say that netbooks suck. You piss me off man, really if your a tecnonerd or whatever you said, you would use your brain and install a linux made for the eee, I use eeebuntu and honestly I wont use it as my primary computer, but is more than twice as fast as xrandros and I haven’t had a crash yet. (I am one hell of a poweruser, and it works GREAT) You piss me off when you buy something and say it sucks, and you obviously didn’t do your homework.
Yeh If They Do Release A “Apple Netbook” It will Be Really Overprices Like All There Other Products….I Cant Really Imagine Apple Releasing There Own Netbook..
Yea the netbook should be in the 8-10 inch range. And it’s probably gonna be all touch screen.
“These go to eleven”
the Macbook Air was the thinnest laptop that was out at that time
I never could understand the Macbook Air other than it looks kind of cool. It’s not a netbook, it’s not ultra portable. It’s essentially the size of a Macbook, just thinner and that just doesn’t matter. The Macbook is very thin as it is.
If you travel much the appeal of a netbook’s size is extremely clear.
Apple is behaving like they’ve been blindsided by netbooks, which is probably why they are saying such weird things.
I can’t guess what Apple will do, but their comments are BS right now. They don’t have to make a $400 one, they can charge $700 if they want and just say “it’s better”. The cheapest Macbook is $1000 so clearly they could strip out the CD etc to get to that price point.
I have an MSI Wind and it runs GREAT. And: I have OSX on it. The preinstalled XP looked clean, but by installing OSX I was able to use my Time Machine to copy my apps over (including IM configurations, etc) a huge time saver.
i dont want to see a mac netbook. if they did, i’d want to see a multitouch tablet like you said which would revolutionize the game. but to be honest, wen we’re out of this recession i dont think people will really want a netbook. they’re just gonna want their macbook. its really the ideal size for a portable consumer notebook. and if you want more portability then you save up for a macbook air (which i hope they upgrade soon.. long overdue.. and lower the price would be nice to). thats my take.
MacBook Mini or MiniBook
Same ports and shit as the regular MacBook
10″ diameter screen
All that Bluetooth shit
Wi-Fi
AT&T 3G
Rotate the screen and close it to make it a tablet
Mac OSX Touch
nah. 13inch? kinda falls into the category of a laptop.
netbooks do suck- can barly watch movies, etc, cannot design good quality movies or even laggs alot when you doing more than 2 things at once.
i really like the way you think thinks through. you have great logic
i think the apple netbook will be a tablet and i will get one
The MacBook Air Is considered an ultra portable notebook. A Netbook usually has much lower specs & has a smaller screen. Plus Netbooks are much less expensive that Ultra Portables.
I agree with this guy that netbooks suck
the only good one is barely even a netbook
its called the asus n10j
compared to any other netbook, it is great
specs:
320gb SATA 7200rpm
2gb ddr2
Nvidia 9300m 256mb vram
1.3mp webcam
bluetooth
fingerprint scanner
it has great components but is bottlenecked by the intel Atom 1.6gHz, so i Overclocked it to 2.1gHz
before i OC’d it, it could still run cod4 and fallout 3 fine
after i OC’d it, it runs them at higher settings
only bad thing is price
no its an ultra portable
Does anyone consider the Macbook Air Apple’s answer to the netbook?
Linus (the Linux based OS) that came with my Acer Aspire One was awful, and XP runs quite smoothly. At the moment I have dual-boot to Mac OS X and Windows on it, and I think it copes admirably.
I think it will be a mini macbook unibody with tochscreen 10”
I’d love to see an apple tablet but to make it an oversized Ipod touch/iphone would be a joke. Wheres my photoshop and aperture.
wow. good logic man..
Well it will work, but it’s going to be rather painfully slow to use. My own Acer One is a 512Mb but with the 120Gb HDD. Plus that 8Gb SSD is going to rather cramped with XP.
Give Ubuntu Netbook Remix a go, you can try it from a USB stick. If you like what you see, installing takes about 15 minutes, everything works.
It’s quick, gives longer battery life than when running Windows, and from my experience of it, considerably more reliable than Windows running on the Acer One.
Yup netbooks, low priced, cramped keyboards. Just can’t see Apple making a product like this. I see Apple making some kind of larger iPhone type device, a tablet.
BTW I got a netbook as well, an Atom 1.6GHz powered Acer One A150. Wasn’t happy when it was running Windows, yes it was very slow, and somewhat unreliable.
However I’ve got Ubuntu Netbook Remix GNU/Linux on it now, it’s a totally transformed machine. It’s fast, downloads things quick, totally reliable, use it all the time.
that would be almost impossible cause their base priced product costs $599.
