Many friends, colleagues and family members would usually approach me with this question and I always give them the same answer. For your enjoying pleasure, here are my thoughts on the subject...
Nowadays there are so many different makers and models, options and features when it comes to computer systems. We visit our local computer stores and there is always a never ending lists of computers to choose from, that even the most computer savvy person could easily get intimidated.
The first thing I always ask before I recommend a system "what is going to be used for? Homework? Online browsing? Specific projects for home or business?" We are always accustom to two things: go for the best and greatest when we can afford it or go for everything that looks great on paper. Computer makers love attracting buyers by detailing everything they can right in front of their eyes. Many users look at system specifications and make their decisions based on a list of cute little numbers and computer terms. Unfortunately 99% of time they have no idea what any of these terms mean or they don't use 1/2 of the features they get.
Netbook or Laptop? well, Netbooks are cheaper, smaller, lighter and with less system resources than a laptop. If you love surfing the web and only need the system to do your homework, you definitely want to consider a Netbook system. That's if you don't mind a really tiny keyboard and small screen to work with.
Laptops are a usually a little more expensive than Netbooks, but then again there are tons of makes and models out there to decide from. It's always best to go online, search and read for reviews and comparison on the system you're looking to buy. Most of the time you learn about the system more than what you expect and end up going for a different one that is more suitable (better) and less expensive.
Which laptop would I choose personally? heh heh... I will cover that on another post.
