Yesterday you dismissed what Charles said about netbooks. This morning the
Wall Street Journal confirmed that netbook production is down. Now you're
saying "Don't pay attention" to his experience? You have a lot to
contribute, but you're also often wrong. I wish you'd show more respect.

Like other persons in this list have already stated. Look for one without
crap software. If your options are limited, go with one that 1 have a
confortable keyboard to type. That includes all the keys you want. 2 Try to
get one wiout crap software like hp media, hp security, sony disk whatever.
The less software instal on it, the better. and 3, try to look for one with
at least a 2GB ram and an intel procesor. AMD is great, but they eat your
battery like there is no tomorrow.

On a netbook you have to use the function key and arrow key and some other
combination get the page up, page down, and others like that. Also you will
have to set jaws to a laptop keyboard. It is a learning curve.

Hi list, My name is Carlos I am new to the list. I use to post once in a
while years ago. Well I just bought a net book. my sighted friend hlped me
buy it. Its an hp net book from best buy. Since I never had a net book i did
not know what to look for. The first thing was that when the computer was
turnd on it did not go in to windows right away instead showing some hp
media thing. I prbably could not hae figuered ou what was going on if not
for my sighted friend setting it up.o then i found the insert but worked as
a print screen first and as an insert only in conjction of pressing the
function ke. Thats not good with jaws. Now i just have fond out it doesn
have a home page up page down or end key. I took it to best buy and they are
goig to let me exchange it for another on i have had it for mor thann a
month so they are making an exception to there rulesbecause the naure of the
situation. if any one has had prolems with net books like this or has any
suggestions on specific brands like please let me know.Its a nice netbook
but i don't think i could get uso not having a home key or page upor page
dow or end. thanks for any help. The sales person in best buy suggested
toshiba net books but i don't know. Thaks Carlos
