In this video, I answer a question from LDStarling, who asks "Do you think netbooks are useful?".  Great question LDStarling!  Usefulness definitely depends on the individual but I find that they are useful for convenience.  The small footprint allows you take it almost anywhere.  You give up CPU power and HD storage for convenience.  I find that netbooks are best used when they are unplugged so the battery life becomes an issue the more you get attached.  My main tasks on my netbook are:  web mail, web surfing, social networking, and bible study.  For me, it's definitely useful and if you do any of the similar activities, you'll get some use out of a netbook.  Thanks LDStarling for the question!
