Wow, what a great, comprehensive overview of what can be done with a netbook. I may have to look into utilising mine more. I mainly use mine for web surfing when I can't be bothered using my main machine (duh) and also to download large files overnight. Sometimes I leave it on for a week at a time. Tip: put your netbook on top of a radiator, which draws the excess heat away from the underside of the netbook. (Obviously the radiator has to be turned off.) My Dell Mini 10V tends to get really hot if I don't. Here's a great list of classic old PC games you can play on a netbook: http://gamingbolt.com/100-games-to-play-on-your-netbook-or-h... Google "netbook games" for further inspiration. |

Yeah, they draw really little power, especially with the screens turned off. If you need to transfer files, or have a system up sending keep-alive pings or something that doesn't require a bunch of computation, they're really ideal.
Great link btw!
