I’m looking at getting a new laptop computer.<\/p>\n

I know I can’t recreate my dual monitor system at home so I’m shooting for small and carryable. I tried a 17″ wide-screen \u00a0behemoth \u00a0from Dell last year and it was awful: It weighed a frigging ton, occupied my entire bag and ran Vista.<\/p>\n

I liked a 10″ netbook computer with a 94% size keyboard I saw at Radio Shack. 8 hour battery life, weighing 3 lbs. I forget which… it looked like they all were just awesome. The ones I tried all ran Notepad with blazing speed. Heh.<\/p>\n

Some questions:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Is Windows 7 as hari-kari inducing as Vista?<\/li>\n
  2. A $350 laptop with all the horsepower of my desktop computer? What am I missing besides the screen space?<\/li>\n
  3. If they are $350 from Radio Shack, where do I buy these laptops for free?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
