    Default ALSO Getting a Netbook

    My mom and I just ordered this one:

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16834131027

    It's a Samsung NP-NC10. A friend of mine's dad has a blue one that I got to use a few times and I really liked it. Because my computer blew up (it didn't really, something in it just died ><) I actually got to order it. I need something to take with me places to do schoolwork, anyways. After I get a job I'll replace whatever died on me (if it was the mobo I'll save up for a tricore AMD and just sell my E6320 to my bro) and then have a badass computer again. /a bit of rambling

    But yeah, I'm excited. It arrives either Wednesday or Thursday.

    Oh. I found out why my dad's was more expensive. He had a 9-cell battery and N wireless. I love the keys on that netbook.

    That explains a lot, lol. Poopy, so I won't be able to use that laptop out in the gazebo.

    Sweet, let us know how you like the laptop after you get it. Stuff like battery life and how well built it is.

    These things are solid from up-close. Can't wait to see his though.

    Yeah, other than the fact that it's well made I particularly like the fact(s) that it will be a) black and b) mine.

    I'm not sure, but I'm glad that I didn't get the one with wireless N as it would have been another $160.

    I do like the almost-full-sized keyboard. That'll be helpful for 3am beyond-last-minute paper-writings...or not as I won't be procrastinating THAT badly hehe.

    Really good question! You can get Satellite from Best Buy for the same price with a bigger screen. Not endorsing Satellites just saw them today when I went to get a couple Papa Roach CDs. You have to walk past the laptops to get to anything in Best Buy.

    One of the main reasons I got this particular one is because a friend of mine's dad owns one and it felt really sturdy and overall well made. Perhaps I paid more for this as the quality is higher? On the bright side it's not a Macbook Air(head).
