Hey guys, I'm thinking of buying a laptop with the money I'm earning from work. My parents think I'm better off buying a netbook instead? How do they differ from laptops?

Netbooks are good, very good. The only downside is they don't have a DVD drive, but you can pick up an external for £30 so it's not much of a hassle. If you're looking at Netbooks I advise looking at the latest Asus netbook, it has a dual-core processor.

Apart from the obvious size differences, the specs in comparison to a regular laptop are considerably lower. Netbooks are designed to be highly portable and efficient at simple tasks, which explains the spec differences.
If you're getting a new computer for school, explain to your parents that a netbook isn't designed for school use. Although it's more than possible to actually do schoolwork on them, it's just not the same as a laptop.

Laptops are well worth it... Especially if your still gonna play habbo the screen will be tiny on a netbook! I use to have one but the cooling system was that crap it over heated and fried the motherboard. It was hp as well. I seriously don't recommend it. I'd save up for a laptop
especially near Xmas the prices will be going down.
