There've been a lot of negative comments as to Apple's 'attitude' towards Netbooks; i.e.: none in the works for Apple. Now link Amazon reports that the MacBook is the No. 4 bestselling computer overall, and the No. 1 bestselling laptop. Five of the top 20 bestselling laptops are all made by Apple. Meanwhile the return rate for those so called Netbooks has been 30 percent ! I guess those Netbooks are just crappy laptops...

Friend of mine has a Dell netbook , it's real nice but I can't find any real need for a tiny screen and tiny keyboard <- Dell move some keys around , I'll rather use a AirBook
I bought a laptop 2 months ago, with the simple goal to have something to go online, listen to music, even watch movies, do some work when needed when I'm travelling. Of course I was told to buy one of those "netbooks". They're so small, they don't have a dvd drive, I have no use for them. I don't understand who they're aimed to, I mean for a small secondary computer, I'd rather go for a used laptop instead.
