A lot of games like StarCraft and Age of Empires, even Counter Strike can be played on netbooks, usually.

But for advanced stuff, I have my beautiful desktop replacement laptop.

Student wanting to type essays at home/on the move. Also need to check e-mails quite consistently! As a student, I don't need gaming or video editing.

Netbook or laptop?

I am sure the answers is obvious, but being able to write up essays at home/on the go, I need to know if a netbook would be good for me. Any suggestions on models Budget is about £300. Thanks. Great video!
