I was going go get a laptop for doing paperwork, maybe playing a few games (Grim Fandango and World of Warcraft), surfing the net watching HD video (from Vimeo, stuff I film on my 7D) and quickly checking photographs/video when i'm out with my camera, but after putting my mates laptop in my camera bag and carrying it round for a while I quickly decided its going to be wayyy to heavy for a day to day thing. So it came to netbooks.
I've borrowed my dads which he got from work (Samsung NC10) and its ok... only really browsed the net on it and used word once but its ok. bit slow but I don't really know what to expect speed-wise from them yet. What I basically want to know is
Am I expecting too much for a netbook to handle all of this?
Who on here has a netbook? (especially photographers, designers, film makers) and whats your opinion on how useful they are
What brands/models should I be looking for? Don't really want to spend more than £300 ideally.
cheers
