Cheap Netbook Computer

Published by ~Kat~ at 1:31 pm under Blogging, Blogging Tools, Quick Blogging Tips Edit This

Do you ever imagine yourself blogging away in a trendy internet cafe, watching the people come and go while you share your thoughts with the world? NO? Maybe it is just me, but that is what comes to mind for me.  The reality is my laptop with power cord and case is over 10 pounds and it turns out it is just too bulky to carry to the internet cafe to blog while sipping a latte.  So I do most of my blogging in my little home office with a cute little cockatiel to keep me triplemutationcockatiel.jpgcompany.

But I have just found  a great deal for bloggers who want to blog on the go. I had to wait until I got mine before I was willing to let you all in on the deal.   Buy.com is selling a refurbished Asus  Eee 900 netbook computer for just $179 with free shipping. About the size of a large paperback, and weighing just over 2 pounds, this is a  great little computer if you want something small and light that you can carry around with you and use to get on the internet.  It  is not a great computer if you want it to play games that are heavy on the graphics, or if you have the need for a huge amount of speed or data storage.

I can’t wait for mine to arrive.  Blogging with a latte seems like heaven to me! I hope my cockatiel doesn’t miss me.

    I’ve been reading about the little net books. This is a version that a lot of writers carry with them to just jot down a bit here and there. Maybe once I see yours I’ll want one too.

    Please do let me know how you like it. They are so tempting to me also, even tho my house is electronically overloaded already!

    I like the term “electronically overloaded.” meCindyC could write a blog on the topic.

    HA! Not a bad thought…

    I don’t know that it is even possible to be electronically overloaded….
    I guess it all depends on what you mean by overloaded. :)

    That is a great buy on a netbook. I still want a full fledged laptop though. I want to do more than just blog with it. Plus if my new job offer comes to fruition then I need a full fledged laptop to do that too!

    One of your advertisers always makes me smile. “I’m happy I lost my job.” That sounds like me sometimes, but he’s probably not talking about having a big of free time to do what you like until the next job - or maybe he is.
