Too soon! I miss the netbook days. Too bad Microsoft killed them.
- pjmlp 4y agoActually the tablets and Chromebooks, killed them, not the selling XP licenses at discount prices. Google OSes cost zero, with a proper experience and a store Joe and Jane care about.
- justsomehnguy 4y agoCan you rlaborate why do you think MS killed them? For me it was a shitty hardware (Intel Atoms coupled with slooow HDDs or tiny and slow eMMC SSDs) with the market eaten by smartphones (for always on Internet connectivity) and iPads/tablets for anything requiring a bigger screen but not yet a full notebook.
