Doesn't sound like it given the battery life. Except for short coding sessions it sounds like you would be tethered to a nearby power source, and if that's the case why not use a more full featured machine?
- modarts 13y agoSeriously, i'm trying pretty hard to imagine which use cases this device makes any sense. It seems to have a lot of the same limitations that turned consumers away from the original "netbook" devices (underpowered, poor battery performance, awkward form factor, etc)
- tomkarlo 13y agoHaving handled one, it's a lot nicer than the netbooks are. The performance is pretty good, the form factor is much more comfortable in terms of screen size and keyboard size, and the build quality is pretty high. While I wouldn't use one myself (because I want Photoshop / Lightroom), it seems like a great device as school / homework laptop for a grade schooler, for example, or the grandparents use case. Just want to check your email and browse some web pages with zero hassle? This is perfect for that.
