Has anyone tried these "netbooks"? I'm going to use it mostly for college, taking notes, recording lectures and stuff. For $200 they seem alright.
I mean, 4GB of ram and a 64GB SSD should be enough for a relative good web performance? But I heard that the celeron n3050 is a piece of shit, and compares to old low clocked C2Ds.

why not just buy a used computer?

I'd sooner buy a Chromebook at that price point, OP.

I already have a high end desktop back at my home. It's for taking it to class

>ChromeOS
Nah

>>57609704
whats wrong with chromeos
you said taking notes, recording lectures, general web browsing, etc.
it can do all of those why would you get anything other than a chromebook
also you could just install linux on it

Netbooks are a dead meme, everyone buys Chromebooks now.

>>57609627
not him, but the main advantage of new netbooks is the battery life compared to an x230 for example.

holy shit did you just... aw hell naw dude, don't tell anyone to get this piece of shit, I know someone who has one and i've fucked around with it. Don't get this piece of shit OP

>>57609596
Kek I got a X220Tablet with 8GB ram, 500GB HDD and an i5. For the same price you did. Enjoy getting ripped off OP, buy used .

Why did Intel go back to dual cores in these atoms, does the increased core speed help that much over the previous generation of quad cores who get slammed to 100percebt constantly and is the main bottleneck in netbooks.
>>
>>57609596
You're going to fucking hate typing notes on a tiny screen like that.
X220 should be the minimum size of laptop for you to even consider getting.
>>
>>57613351
X230 already gets 6-12 hours of battery life, do you really need more??
>>
>>57609596
Get a ThinkPad X220 nigger

>35W TDP
what is this, 2009 again?
ULV CPUs are the future.
>>
"netbooks" "chromebooks"
they're just fancy words for "you don't get to have an optical drive anymore."
>>
>>57614060
Why?
X230 beats the current line of non-P Thinkpads in some benchmarks.
ULV is bullshit.
>>
>>57614064
That is the absolute lowest of reasons to avoid netbooks.
>>
>>57609704
Just buy an x220-x230 used and call it a day.
