Good!
I actually have an HP Netbook with the older AMD E-350. This new unit will have the cores doubled mantaining the pricing low.

Looks good for the price. Don't know how I feel about that 32GB of storage though. 64GB is enough but 32GB will only have around 15-18GB available space probably. I guess as long as you don't store anything on the drive it should be fine.

Because Netbooks dont sell as well as phones/tablets. Most consumers are happy with their limited phones/tablets.
How often you see someone buy a latoptop every six months?

I don't think I even see people buy phones or tablets every six months, let alone a year. Most people seem to keep what they have for a long time.

I just can't get excited about the netbook form factor. Too small to be productive and too large to be convenient. Have an older netbook that isn't used for anything other than a computer I won't miss if I lose it on a vacation.

For me, phones and tablets are just Grrrr.
I think the NetBooks are just fine for Net and Word.
Some of us just like our real keyboards! And like phones now days, NetBooks have their place.
