@ikaruga2099 For $100 seems like a good deal. I would take it.
-
yeah I ended up buying it. And just in the nick of time, my old one is just starting to die out on me
-
Warning: the keyboards on netbooks tend to be garbage. I _never_ type on mine
-
My netbook is a home file & backup server/media PC. And it's a lowly old eee pc 900!
-
that's true. The shift key on my previous one died on me pretty quickly
-
woah that's pretty amazing.
-
@ikaruga2099 have fun with an eeepc 1001ha on the go.but real work needs thinkpad;)
-
People appear to be getting along fine doing that w/ virtual keyboards… a BAD physical keyboard is worse than no keyboard, IMHO

Wha?? I'm been doing Android development on my eeepc 1000he. Been more than enough

C'mon let's talk about the keyboard. Of course 1001ha is a nice thing,but for longer sessions I prefer a better Keyboard and a bigger screen

Of course. A netbook is perfect for my workflow. Code 1-2 hrs at a time then switch to desktop when i get home/work
-
But the point is I'm able to do "real" work on my netbook. Thanks in part to lightweight #archlinux and #puppylinux

@ikaruga2099 of course, this works with FreeBSD or Debian and notion/ion3 too ;)
