| 1243107 | 2011-11-11 17:28:00 | SWMBO wants a netbook. I think cheapies are around $400; could pay more if necessary. Probably ASUS or Toshiba. Or Samsung? What is your advice? Pricespy selection: pricespy.co.nz Thanks. |

| 1243108 | 2011-11-11 18:12:00 | Isn't Tosh or ASUS cost a bit more ..... some don't like Acer but bro has one, higher reso than just XGA and it has a HDMI port. | Nomad (952) | ||
| 1243109 | 2011-11-11 19:25:00 | I've heard the MSi Wind is excellent. Asus is normally quality as well. | icow (15313) | ||
| 1243110 | 2011-11-11 22:12:00 | What do you plan to do with it? If cheap is your number one criteria, then an Acer Happy is a good bet. | MrRSoul (16583) | ||
| 1243111 | 2011-11-11 22:19:00 | You can get the Acer real cheap here: www.pbtech.co.nz Or for a little more, I would look at this: www.dodgybastards.co.nz The MSI Wind has been rumoured to support OS X. I dont know if there is any truth in that, but if it did, that could be a deciding factor. I have had an MSI before, the only issue there is there support is non-existent... Personally I would go for the Toshiba PLL50A-00M00D. |

| 1243112 | 2011-11-11 23:26:00 | ^ I think you mean hackintosh. Basically an netbook on the intel platform supports this. | icow (15313) | ||
| 1243113 | 2011-11-11 23:43:00 | I would pay a bit more and get something decent. End of the day, you get what you pay for, if you want to go for the bottom end, expect it to be rubbish. Future proof yourself a little, you will find it will be worth it in the long run. Cheers. | Iantech (16386) | ||
