NetBooks

A good friend of mine tipped me off to the growth trend in NetBooks. This class of computer is smaller and are great for working off the net, but don't have a lot of other functionality. I keep reading dispatches from TechCrunch saying how popular they are getting. This is a trend to watch. Google Apps aren't quite there, at least for me, but give them another year, and the NetBook will be even more appealing.

I'm pretty confident that the version of Microsoft Office that I just bought, will be the last check I ever write Microsoft again (except for OS & maybe Advertising $).
