Seems like more and more folks are jumping into the netbook bandwagon these days. Take the Amazon top ten bestselling laptops for example, where you’ll find 9 netbooks out of 10, leaving one spot for the Apple Macbook. 8 of these are powered by Intel’s 1.6GHz Atom processor. I guess people start minding the less power and screensize less and caring about ease and portability more these days. Beware laptops!!
