I guess no one is using the thousands of netbooks sold this year. (sarcasm).

Nettops on the other hand, I couldn't see myself using one of those as I'd always have the best desktop I could afford but I definitely have no problem using my netbook when I'm not home or my desktop is busy doing something.]]>Dec 21st 2009 1:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/21/intels-next-gen-pine-trail-atom-processors-officially-announced/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/21/intels-next-gen-pine-trail-atom-processors-officially-announced/
The box can be tiny, almost silent, and use little energy. They will never need more power, so they might as well save money too.]]>Dec 21st 2009 4:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/21/intels-next-gen-pine-trail-atom-processors-officially-announced/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/21/intels-next-gen-pine-trail-atom-processors-officially-announced/
They're not meant to be your only computer. If you're somehow limited to a single purchase (money, space, etc), by all means, buy something better, but Atoms are great ancillary devices.]]>Dec 22nd 2009 11:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/21/intels-next-gen-pine-trail-atom-processors-officially-announced/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/21/intels-next-gen-pine-trail-atom-processors-officially-announced/M]]>Dec 21st 2009 12:32AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/21/intels-next-gen-pine-trail-atom-processors-officially-announced/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/21/intels-next-gen-pine-trail-atom-processors-officially-announced/But ION2 will have performance improvements :D]]>Dec 21st 2009 12:32AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/21/intels-next-gen-pine-trail-atom-processors-officially-announced/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/21/intels-next-gen-pine-trail-atom-processors-officially-announced/
seriously. and the ion is probably more powerful than the integrated graphics anyway]]>Dec 21st 2009 12:44AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/21/intels-next-gen-pine-trail-atom-processors-officially-announced/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/21/intels-next-gen-pine-trail-atom-processors-officially-announced/
Atom/Ion or dual core Celeron???]]>Dec 21st 2009 12:46AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/21/intels-next-gen-pine-trail-atom-processors-officially-announced/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/21/intels-next-gen-pine-trail-atom-processors-officially-announced/
I am now thinking of a HP mini 311. It would be a very cheap ultraportable... but expensive netbook.

It doesn't seem Ion 2 will be available soon or even worth it for me since I only want 1080p playback... so I can use it as a super pmp... no games for me.

wth is everybody talking about "no performance improvements"? even the next post, although the benches there show a 15% cpu and 50% gpu improvement in comparison to a n280 diamondville plattform.

also ion isnt gonna cut it either. yes, the gfx is (far) better than all of intels igps, but as you can see with the ion-eee 1201, price and especially runtime just arent right. in this case a thin and light a la timeline often is the better choice]]>Dec 21st 2009 2:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/21/intels-next-gen-pine-trail-atom-processors-officially-announced/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/21/intels-next-gen-pine-trail-atom-processors-officially-announced/Well I do not need longer battery life, 6 hours is already good. I prefer a smaller screen (the mini 311 is pretty awesome) and the size is small enough.

I just want smooth 1080P playback with a HDMI which makes a bad ass PMP.

I would have liked a noticable increase in power. Sure I do not need a workstation, but my friend's netbook seems to require a bit of patience.

Sure we all want endless batterys, super resolution oled and top nvidia gfx, but these new Atoms doesn't change the game.

here's a link with an indepth look at 720p vs 1080p:

I'll be looking for a cheaper 311 after CES2010. Hopefully it'll be a "runout" item and we'll snap up something cheap and just as good as the next crop.

250Watt Flex ATX PSU
