Well, I can say from actuall experience that AMD processors are great, but they
eat your battery like there is no tommorrow. I know this because my two cousins
both have the exact model of netbook but one has an intel and the other has an
AMD one. The AMD one's battery only lasts around 2 to 3 hours of battery while
the intel goes for 5 to 6 hours of battery time. Other than that, I have no
other comments about the AMD processors.

Hello,
Thank you very much Adrian.
I could say much to this, but will not out of respect for those who have
contributed their constructive ideas and tips to this list. Furthermore, this
is not the list for flaming!
Enough said.

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
