Hey everyone,

I’m thinking about getting a netbook for college. I already have a larger, heavier laptop but would like something lighter to carry around and use for lecture notes, in the library, or for researching on the internet. Basically just school stuff. I wouldn’t need it for games or entertainment. Can anyone recommend me a netbook that includes the following features?


Large keyboard for fast, easy typing
Preferably a 10-inch screen
Not too heavy
Under $400 please :)


I was thinking about the Samsung NC10 but it’s scraping the limit of my price ceiling and I’ve been trying to find a cheaper option if there’s one out there. If not, it would probably be the Samsung.

Thanks very much for your help! I really appreciate it.
