OBOW's netbook plunge, Sammy's on the way
After weeks of research I finally pulled the trigger on a lightweight, full-featured netbook - a white Samsung NC10. A weekend trip with my heavy dud of a Dell convinced me it was time.I’ll have it by the end of the week and there wil be pictures and comments soon.

I've had an ASUS eeePC for months now and love it. I have my eyes set on the new Sony though, the Vaio P. It is not cheap, $900 for the basic model but the keyboard is full size and the screen has extra width for reading, and weighs 1.4 pounds. This is an excellent design for portability and usability. It doesn't have a trackpad, it uses the same pointer system as in old ThinkPads, which I loved but I know some people hate. I prefer the pointer to a trackpad in laptops.
