Latest Phone Review

In resent years the computer industry has brought out ultra portable laptops called netbooks. But what is a netbook? This article will attempt to answer this question, but may raise several more questions that I will go into in later articles.

For many years the computer industry has brought out faster, smaller, more powerful and efficient computer components. We as consumers have bought the new components, when most don’t need it. Most owners of computers will only use them for browsing the Internet and checking on email or maybe to tap out a document or letter. This sort of computer use is not using the latest computers to their maximum capabilities. People were buying the latest computers because they wanted all that power just in case they needed it instead of buying a computer that would do what they wanted and in doing this save themselves lots of money.

The netbook was born from the One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) project that made a small laptop so that children in 3rd world countries could get the IT education that they needed. At around the same time Asus brought out a competing laptop called the EEPC. They found out however that this device was more popular with European businessmen, and the rest is history as they say. The name netbook however came from a device that Psion developed, the name has been used for all devices that resemble small Internet capable devices ever since.
