This one has 11 user reviews for 5/5 eggs. $319.99 with free shipping. I'm not sure if that'll apply to you if you live outside the US though.

This one has a better battery life and a nice sized hard drive. It has 4/5 eggs after 40 user reviews.

Notebook - 1.5 hour battery life, heavy, about 700-3000 dollars, more features, etc...
Netbook - 3 hour or 6 hour batteries, light, under 300 dollars, no CD/DVD drive, 2-4 USB ports and SD memory card slot.

A netbook is a great compliment for a PC, but a notebook is a good (though pricey) replacement.

The largest issue netbooks and notebooks have are keyboards I find; watch out for any irregularities.

I use a PC/netbook/smartphone (Acer PC, Acer Aspire netbook, and Apple iPhone 3G) combo which I find is excellent; cost me about $1000 total for all three (cheaper than my TV) and has an upkeep of $100 a month for Internet on my computers, and phone/data plan - and that price typically falls each year (my Nokia N95 used to cost me $130 per month alone just two years ago).

Thanks for the explanation. I guess i want a 10" mainly to surf web, don´t need optical drive, so it´s a netbook. I´m just afraid that with less speed and ram, the net will become too slow in netbooks.

Thanks, this is usefull to me.

Guess I'll use this thread to ask if anyone has some listing/has done some research on which netbooks can handle HD videos.

I'm getting a netbook for college sometime soon, but since I don't have a regular laptop (ok, I have one from 2001, doesn't count as much), I want the netbook to at least partly be able to substitute for it should I travel somewhere.

Right now I have my eyes on this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834152140 , and I can't find anything else that might to the job (the criteria for HD video is because, well, I don't want to have to convert videos just for it).

I don't have any experience with MSI, they don't rank as the best but I've been unable to find anything else of the kind.

Just to be honest, my netbook is not as speedy loading up pages as my desktop, but that is to be expected, since...well its a slower computer. I don't know why more notebooks dont have the Atom 280, most just have the 270 from what I've seen. That extra 600mhz would be nice. 

I think that I will get a new netbook when the 2nd generation of netbooks come out. I predict at least 1280 horizontal lines of resolution, a processor slightly faster than 1.6, and 2GB of ram with Win7. That would be the netbook that I want.

What turns me on to this MSI you posted is its higher resolution at 1366 x 768. What turns me off is that its 12" which is on the large side for a netbook. Its also got some AMD Neo processor that I'm not familiar with, so I don't know if its any good or not.

It's also relative, latest netbooks with AMD CPU and GPU are a little more powerful (Radeon 1270 instead of 1250), as GPU, but a little less as CPU, than my 2008 medium-low range notebook, they have only a smaller screen, but they weigh less and have longer battery life. Not suitable for latest games, but good enough for games 3-4yrs old or older, particularly considering you won't play at high res on these machines. Perfect for not demanding tasks and for portability.

The CPU is fine. It's much faster than the Atom netbooks.
