And -- last I checked -- they are cheaper than laptops, unless you want to buy a beyond crappy laptop.

I don't own a netbook, but got my mother one for her birthday. It really is an amazing little thing, and after using it I was changed in how I thought about them. They're nowhere near as bad as you'd think, and the portability is great. If you already have a desktop but do some traveling, there's no point in buying a laptop instead of a netbook. The last two laptops I had both crapped out in roughly a year and a half's (or less) time -- right out of the warranty time. So, instead of getting a $2,000 paperweight, I'd rather pay $500 to get something that's going to be more replaceable and work just as fine for the majority of tasks.
Slowly but surely, we're getting there...

I would buy a netbook in a heartbeat if it had the Ion platform and a dual core Atom (yes, I know, not yet existent for the mobile market). HP's new Mini 5101 looks amazing -- if it had the Ion I'd be all over it.
When is Nintendo just going to admit that all these Wii accessories are really mind-control devices to get people to buy more Wii accessories?

It's a vicious cycle...

I hear it's a natural evolution that computer companies have already thought out, actually. The mouse will be succeeded by the cat.
I'm really excited 16:10 is finally coming to the 360. Same with the HDD playback.
And I shall call him... mini-me.
You need to do some fact-checking, because you just messed that list up. You also forgot to mentioned Sparks Unlimited, who started the console COD series.

Sorry, but when it's extra content you have to pay for and some of the content is lacking in quality, I'm going to complain. :)
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I am trying to configure out a really dumbed down and intuitive PC for my grandmother. She recently had a stroke and while she is under my care I would like to repurpose a laptop for her to surf and email her children. Anyone have any experience with what input devices and UI's are really understandable for the over 80 crowd?"
