It seems like the netbook space was unfortunately so plagued by bad hardware that it lost all credibility as a viable alternative to a laptop-- but there are still very few instances in which I prefer a touchscreen to a keyboard. Even a not-great one.
- digi_owl 9y agoThe impression i have is that first Intel freaked, as they worried that they would cannibalize the ultra-portable market. Second Microsoft freaked, because Vista could not run on them. End result was that we got a combo of hardware and software that was not fit for anything, along with a bunch of gray-box rebrands (particularly of a certain MSI model).
